As an adult the only book have reread is Infinite Jest. Onto my third round. I don't think it has made me any wealthier or even generally better off at all. It's just very entertaining.
>>61102745The Bible
>>61102745Talmud, obviously
>>61102745The art of cunnilingus by Nancy Pelosi
Industrial Society and it's Future by Theodore J. Kaczynski
>not a single actual textbook
>>61102745I re-read the "Killing Child at Zoo" chapter a lot
>>61102782Les miserables is my favorite book. Would i enjoy infinite jest?
>>61102971American psycho is one of those instances where the movie is better than the boon.
>>61102745Is there a rule for when trump makes a tweet and crashes the stock market?
>>61102745Every single book can be summarized into a 10 page article at most. Every single one of these authors has put a lot of effort into padding their content to fill up a book. It's not like they had to cut down and squeeze their content into a book. Most books are like this (yes, even your favorite """masterpiece"""), but self-help and educational shit are notoriously worse.My advice is to listen to the audiobook format once (while doing a chore or working out), and then use an LLM to summarize the book so you can occasionally re-read them quickly.
>>61102985Yes. >rule 1 - Don't leverage so hard that a -2% bankrupts you>rule 2 - TACOnomics means you should immediately slurp the dip as hard as you can, even if you break rule 1
>>61102745Konosuba, the structure from volume to volume is just a joy.
>>61102981It makes the book better, I'll give you that and I re-read it several times before the movie came out. Christian Bale's Metropolitan yuppie swagger take was not what I expected, but it works exceptionally well. I literally can't read it now without hearing his voice
>>61102745Moby Dick, the Hobbit, 9 stories by JD Salinger
>>61102745Antifragile
r8 my tasteThere's some stuff missing from the pic like Melville's Piazza Tales, Thomas Hardy, Maupassant, Jack London, another 3 or 4 Conrad and Kipling volumes
