Apparently, it makes you more open-minded, improves thinking skills, and even helps you live longer. And whilst you're deciding which great work of literature to start on next, perhaps you'd like to give 'General Katutian Surveys her Triumph' published on Martian, the magazine of science fiction drabbles, a go.

2084. The world remains at war.
In the Eurasian desert, twenty-year old Adnan emerges from a coma with memories of a strictly ordered city of steel and glass, and a woman he loved.
The city is the Dome, and the woman... is Adnan's secret to keep.
Adnan learns what the Dome is, and what his role really was within it. He learns why everybody fears the Sickness more than the troopers. And he learns why he is the only one who can stop the war.
Persuaded to re-enter the Dome to implant a virus that will bring the war machine to its knees, the resistance think that Adnan is returning to free the many - but really he wants to free the one.
