I can read most of Asimov, but I don't like the short stories from his early years as much. The broken but themed short stories are hard for me to stick with reading as a routine. His later stuff is much better than the earlier as far as books you can't put down. They aren't sequentially written though. The way Asimov ties in earlier story elements into his later books to interweave the different series together is interesting. Like you might totally miss many subtle references when reading the later books, and these have no impact on the story in question, but if you are reading them with the context of having already read the earlier books there are intuitive clues that guide you along. Like, there is an element of foreshadowing in the plot that is fun. Forward is good but also a slightly broken 3 part story from 3 different feature characters' perspectives, but a sequential story in its own way. Still, I'm in a lull hiatus in my reading at the beginning of the third section. I just don't do great with interruptions in fiction. I'll probably end up binging the last section when I get around to it.
