    my bro is quite a prolific reader and one of the books he was quoting (the grammar of motives, iirc) said something like,

    the word 'educate' is based on some latin word which essentially means 'to bring out', so it's not a cramming of facts and knowledge into the brain but the bringing out of what's already there

    food for thought

    @OP: What genre do you typically enjoy reading? Fiction or non-fiction? What do you want to be reading about? ;-)

    Isn't there a good suggestion engine for this sort've thing too? Good Reads or something?

    I love non fiction. I'm not a fan of fiction.

    You should try Shogun, The Man Who Would Be King, and A song of Ice and Fire, and if you like science fiction, Flow My Tears the Policeman Said and The Alien Way.

    Sometimes, you get to visit a wonderful place when reading.
