To get yourself into the habit, don't read anything on your "to read someday list of important books." Just pick the most notorious page turner you can think of.
Blood Meridian has dark moments in the narrative sure, but it’s a beautifully written book and very easy spaghetti western adventure to get lost in before bed. It’s not like you’re dozing off reading The Necronomicon, c’mon.
I think everyone should read it, but I can also appreciate an "easy there, Satan"-type joke about it!
Last one I read was Suttree while over in the US camping in the South-East.

This probably isn’t entirely the point you were trying to make with that sentence, but I feel like reading a book about an issue instead of trying to inform yourself through doomscrolling social media will actually do more to being an informed and empowered person.
I think this is an underrated comment. Nothing wrong with staying informed to an extent but when it becomes all consuming (esp through social media and 24/7 news), it is essentially taking on the world day in, day out. That's a large burden to absorb for any individual and the loss of control one feels breeds anxiety.
No Dan Carlin, though. That man's voice is caffeine.
