As others have said, it’s a skill that gets developed. If you were a Lit Major, you start small. Is this character happy and does it matter? Does part of this text remind you of a famous person or event, and if so what does the rest of the book say about that? How does the context it was written in change your understanding?

Start with more approachable texts, and focus on something you find interesting. It doesn’t even have to be a book, when I got my MA in Lit one of my classmates were analyzing Harold and Kumar movies. Another looked at Atonement. Another did Lovecraft stories. Keep it breezy, this is supposed to be fun

Casio Duro if you’re into bulkier dive watches, or a Timex Expedition (or weekender really) if you’re field watches / simple 3 handers.

I wear watches because of utility (and I guess a bit accessory as well). I wore Timex Weekenders before getting into Watches, and I’ll still wear a Casio Duro should anything ever happen to my nicer watches.

I wear expensive (to me) watches because then I also get to wear jewelry.
