One of the things I use to decide which books to read is thickness.

The 3/4” weenies get read and forgot in a day. “The Perfect Storm” is an example of a great book lacking breadth. I paid $35/hour for that DaVinci code ripoff of "Holy Blood Holy Grail" that I read in highschool.

One weenie I read in the 70’s still remains, and pertains to this topic.. “Mindbridge”, I believe was the tittle.

Lately, I am stuck in an Ayn reread spiral. Did pop in Ken Follets “Pillars of the Earth” (fabulous read). Digression is occasionally necessary to retain sanity.
