I have a large pile of books that I wanted to read, that I've collected over the years. Unfortunately I struggle to read too. Just now is the first time I've managed to read an entire book for 2 years and I used to read voraciously before my brain F'd off. I started with an easy book.
Now I'm reading Sanity, Madness and the family by RD Laing. It's easier to read than his other books (I've tried A Divided Self but couldn't manage it) because lots of it is transcribed dialogue. It's kind of interesting, but there's also a lot of psychoanalytic BS. Eg a whole page of dialogue about nothing much and then he says that there's an incestuous undertone between the daughter and father. Apparently we're all sz because we (women) want to **** our fathers, and our dads want it too, and so our mothers hate us because of that...

Um, maybe not Laing!! Oh and don't think you guys are excluded because it just works the other way around for you lot!
ETA: It's slow going though, but better than not reading at all.
