Rule 10: Books don’t have rules

ByJeff Gibbard April 2, 2020

Books don’t have rules.

  • You don’t have to read a book cover to cover.
  • You can read as much or as little as you want.
  • Read it out of order.
  • Write notes in the margins.
  • You’re allowed to do whatever you want.
  • And if you don’t like a book, stop reading it and find a new one, you’ll never run out of options.
