autobiographies are books. i mean, with the 'cool' people writing books, wouldn't it be 'cool' as well to read them? |
He means books with substance, any idiot can write a book about their own life. Most of the time they don't even write it themselves but rather just provide the substance while a trained professional does the actual writing. Reading novels and such is still thought of as geeky. I played hockey and rugby in college and was an overall athletic guy, but once a couple of "cool" kids found my philosophy books at the gym and started going on abotu how much of a loser this kid whose books these are is. Then i said ummm yea they are mine and they were all surprised and said but your not a nerd. so yea still exists and most likely always will but the criteria will change with each new generation.
