I guess my question is that I am looking for a book that will keep my attention, and suit my interests.

---------

A while back I was pretty interested in philosophical quotes and the such; as I am still now.

I find Psychology, Sociology, and others like those gravely interesting. I like diving into people's psyche and figuring things out.

Makes me feel special.


But now, It just recently came to my conscious awareness that I am an observist. I watch people in their environments, and get entertained by them.

I like watching people squirm when they don't know how to answer a question.

I love how I can sit in a doctors office, look around, and see the same kind of behavior I can get from going out in the real world; but just clustered in one room.


In movies/tv shows, I am often the only one in a group of people that get and understand every metaphorical reason the cinematographer makes each frame look the way it does.

I like the weird movies that you have to try to figure out the reasons and things during the movie, instead of having a crappy plot line explained out for you.

---------


So I guess, to sum it up, I am looking for a book that takes things and observations, and puts them into words. I guess not a fiction book, mostly non-fiction.

After all that, do you guys have any suggestions lol?

Just read Chekhov's stories. Then move on to Dubliners. And if you have not read Shakespeare, go get a copy of at least his major tragedies.
