I feel ashamed I don't read more fiction. To seek truth, read fiction, a wise man said, (paraphrased and I don't remember who,) and so I turn to literature and avoid all topical titles when I do read non-fiction. Who'll read Ann Whatshername's latest and greatest in two, three years?

i used to feel that way too. so for that reason i didn't read any fiction. But when i began to read fiction, i realized i often learn something meaningful from those books as well.
