If, when you go visiting someone you wish to be close friends with. And it takes you less than ½ an hour to thoroughly browse their bookshelves. You might need to do some rethinking.

Good plan.
I am known to “accidentally” leave books behind when I visit folks.
@corlin @thedisasterautist I try not to judge people for not knowing they might enjoy reading. I learned to read at home, but I watched so many classmates learn to read in a classroom setting that ensured they'd associate reading with being miserable, feeling less-than, or being boring.
Sometimes it's just that they haven't learned to like it _yet_.
I've also known some great folks whose interests and expertise didn't include reading. We don't all have to be the same to be worthy.
