General timeline:
8-10: Harry Potter books

10-13: Simpsons books

13-16: Got interested in words and started reading pop-linguistics books along with pop non-fiction on history and politics

16-17: Read assigned books in school and started to get interested in fiction

17-19: Started reading fiction seriously, mostly "classics" (Kafka, Pynchon, Borges, Dostoevsky, Camus, Nabokov, Vonnegut and obvious stuff like 1984, Brave New World, Fahrenheit 451)

19-20: Moved on to more contemporary literary fiction (DFW, Bolaño, Mark Leyner, Sebald, Murakami, Saramago, Eco)

20-23: stopped reading as much fiction in favour of philosophy/theory, lots of Foucault, stuff on epistemology, political theory and sociology of science (Latour, Kuhn, Woolgar, Baldamus)

23-24 (now): Reading widely in architecture/planning theory+history and lots of transgressive/experimental fiction (Joyce, Alexander Theroux, Joseph McElroy, Ballard, William T. Vollman, Bukowski, Gilbert Sorrentino, Dennis Cooper and British experimentalists like B.S. Johnson, Anna Kavan, Christine Brooke-Rose, Stewart Home)

If you just want to be edgy, go on. "Oh... of course I've read Plato" can be a pretty good pussy magnet. But don't think it'll make you an intellectualist.

Many possess the potential, few the will. Your're right though.

Exactly.
