Since my teen years, I've always been the type who would get so engrossed in any book that interests me, that I would consume the whole thing without getting up from the table.
That's not to say I never took breaks, but only so much as the body (or life) required.
48 Laws is different. It's the type of book that requires so much concentration that I dare not open it unless I've cleared my schedule first. Even then, I'll probably have to re-read chapters and even paragraphs to truly digest it.
I did. I Had to. I’m your style of reader. I used to do a paperback 3-400 pager in a day easy. Often. But I couldnt with 48. Had to reread a couple times and some areas several times. Had to fight it just like Inferno and Paradise Lost.
But it was a mission and it was worth it. Changed me. Things that used to baffle me now seem drooling obvious. It’s not a Bible. It’s not LRon crap. It’s what it is. Condensed knowledge that people are afraid of.
Because if you try living by that book, you will be the ultimate arsehole. But if you understand it, you understand the ‘why’ of the arsehole and how they manipulate for power.
