@kgs_live reading, like most skills, is best improved obliquely. don't try to kickstart a reading habit, but simply ask: what am I most interested in? drill down to one topic, and then google for books on that topic. don't read to read, read to get deeper into things you already care about

China just installed a mind-boggling 256 GW of solar capacity in the first half of 2025—more than the rest of the world combined! This highlights their aggressive leadership in the global clean energy race.
India, with its vast solar potential, has the opportunity to follow this lead, create a global power grid, and become self-sufficient in energy — maybe even an energy exporter. Let’s blanket every bit of barren land from the Thar desert to the Deccan Plateau with #SolarPower for #CleanEnergy!
