it's like. such a recurring pattern that it's hard to believe it's unintentional, but... like, the text never actually alludes directly to the fact that most of the problems are rooted in the characters' attempts to act based on what they think others are feeling or would feel. and often the characters seem to take away explicit realizations that are the opposite of accurate on this point... so like, also weirdly subtle about it if it is intentional

requesting advice on reading textbooks (and more general reading for broad learning).
i have some techniques for reading for more specific knowledge, but if i’m trying to read a text to absorb its contents in general, i don’t have a very satisfactory approach. what do y’all do? reading or note-taking approaches both might be helpful to suggest.

additional constraints: my memory is poor as often my (non-medicated, at least) focus and attention span.

i request recommendations for good introductory linguistics materials
