      So what are you mad about? that you had to read books in English class?

      Why were you taking english class if you don’t want to read books?

      Are you angry you had to do engineering problems in engineering class too? Sounds like it.

        Just said kids in college read cliffs notes twenty years ago. I’m not sure why this bothered you.

          it doesn’t. what i disagree with is your premise that reading books is impossible and too time consuming to be doable by anyone.

          It isn’t.

            Nobody said it was impossible. But you’re crazy if you think reading a long book isn’t time consuming. You’re not absorbing the material if you aren’t taking your time with it.

            Might as well sprint through the Louvre as speed read Anna Karenina.
