How to become "well-read"?

I'm an avid reader, but I'm mostly into fantasy/fiction. Lately, I've wanted to learn more about the real world… our history, politics, economics.

It feels like our world is in shambles.

Every day I read a new headline but I am tired of being ignorant and misled. I want to think more critically and form informed opinions.

What books would you recommend to someone like me? I’m looking for suggestions with the most accurate and unbiased information as possible.

Edit: A lot of y’all are recommending newspaper. please suggest books too <3

East of Eden

A little less than halfway through this as of now and WOW. This book holds space for so many discussions, this is going to be feeding my future Substack articles very soon. (No promotion)

Looking for an official/original copy of 'Red Dragon' by Thomas Harris (Pre-owned/Second-hand)

Hi everyone,

I am looking to buy a pre-owned/second-hand copy of Red Dragon by Thomas Harris.

I strictly want an official/original publishing, not the pirated/first-copy versions that are often flooded in local markets. The book needs to be in good readable condition with clean text and no missing or torn pages.

If anyone here has a genuine copy in their collection that they are willing to part with or sell, please let me know or DM me with the condition details and your expected price. I am based out of Kolkata, so local pinpoints or shipping options both work for me.

Thanks!

Which one is better?

Is it better to read physical book or reading on screen?

What are the pros and cons of both?

would you guys read a book if it's written in a very raw and in unprofessional manner ?

thinking of writing my life out , i really want to get some things out of my chest and being a big time writer , who has been journeling since i was 8 , i really want to let my feelings out for the world

and i really want to keep it very raw , hinglish , pure emotions like when i am excited i extend the last letter of some words like " i am sooo HAPPPPPYYYYYYY Y'ALLLLL" like that , would you read it ? i just feel i am scared and i am suffering alot mentally rn , there is something i fear alot and it just won't go , basically a non fiction
