I have been spending several hours a day at a nursing home visiting my 95 year-old Dad - who mostly sleeps. I am in need of a pastime to keep me from doing the same. I want to be there for him when he wakes up and I want to have an interesting subject to talk to him about. New "reads" would fill the bill quite nicely.
