    Agreed. I think “Flowers for Algernon” hit me hard. And I had an experience in college where I accidentally took a philosophy class called “Critical Theory Since Plato” when I first realized that I’m not very smart, just a little above average, and some people live life on a while different level than I do.

    And don’t get me started on “Electromechanical Wave Theory,” a book I bought from Goodwill. I wanted to learn more about that, but I think it was written by aliens.
