Eh, I think reading is more a skill than a hobby. Preferring a specific type of book (eg. fiction novels) over others is a purely matter of taste, but people who don’t like to read anything and reject the written word, period, are not going to be inclined to read the news, to read think pieces, to read textbooks.

It is much more difficult to learn things and understand the world if you’re allergic to reading. If your position is that you don’t enjoy any book in any format about anything…eh. That’s not great imo. At least in my mind, the it’s quite different from not liking sports or not liking video games.

Premise made zero sense and filled me with zero feelings. I was actually recommended this book directly by a friend and I dunno how to tell them I despised it.
