Personally I wasn’t a fan of them, so was glad they didn’t continue on.

    Why what’s the novels?

    If it’s not in sorts with philosophy or whatnot, could be his guilty pleasure.

      Eh, I have to admit, I have a hard time buying it, too. This is a guy who reads Shakespeare in his spare time, not trashy, pulp detective novels from the early-mid 20th century. He even thought taking a trip on The Orient Express would be too indulgent. Picard liking Dixon Hill novels makes no sense. Just like off-roading in an ATV.

      Patrick Stewart, on the other hand…

        However much you enjoy fine dining, now and again, you just want a dodgy burger from the van parked outside the student union.

        There’s a reason Dan Brown was so popular. Some times, you need a bit of trash in your life.

          You do. I do. Others do. But let’s not pretend either of us are anywhere close to Jean-Luc Picard.

      Maybe, but the rest of the time you see him reading something, it’s some great work of literature.
