Books on fiction

Tweet

I want to discuss this keeping books in mind. However, I find this issue to be occurring in other entertainment fields of my life such as watching movies or TV series. But let us limit this to books. Every time I read fiction, I find myself not being enraptured by it at all and am almost left wondering whether what I'm doing with life is useful or am I simply wasting my time. I understand that fiction brings a lot of joy to a lot of people. However, it doesn't to me. I find myself sleeping while watching a movie. In theatres, I find myself getting frustrated at being shown something that is not real. I would rather watch a documentary or read a book on science and understand more of the world. I'd rather read an autobiography and learn about something that actually existed/exists/happened/happens. Is there anyone who faces thins and has brought themselves to adore fiction after finding it to be an utter waste of time?
