I- I'm not... not gonna be answering that, dude

Zero?

Last time this happened to me was when I was reading 1001 Nights, where the guy fucked 40 girls.
>>
>>24788651
only once, and near the beginning when he licks both her eyes because she got something in one of them. good scene and really adds to the book
>>
>>24788651
zero but I'm not sure if it's because my dick is numb from porn or not
>>
>>24788665
This.
Lolita has a good premise but terrible execution
>>
>>24788651
None. It's intentionally vulgar.
"Ada" however got me good. Particularly the part with the shaking bottle. I feel something of a connection with Nabokov because that infernal demon haunted my nightmares long before I saw her represented as a character in a novel.

it was probably made to troll women
they'll believe anything

was too busy admiring the pristine prose to be aroused by whatever was happening in the story

What is the premise? I've never looked into what this book actually is
>>
I don't think I was ever aroused by this book, it isn't really smut. The average LN has more.
>>
>>24788651
Impossible to fap to. A boring, boring book. Dull. Droll. Too long. It insists on itself. Nabokov's ego glares at me from every page, demanding validation, expecting praise, begging for attention.

Please elaborate on your entire point. I want to hear more of what you have to say, and no this is not sarcasm. Please reply.

Complaints about prominent authors’ egos are veiled insecurities stemming from the complainer’s own lack of praise

>>24789430
yikes, you kinda burned him

>>24789183
>not taking LSD and admiring the patterns the letters on the pages make
You'll never be a writer.
>>24789430
He's correct, though.
Nabokov's prose wants you to pay attention to it. It purposefully forces you to admire it, making a stumbling and stuttering experience out of reading.
Joyce's prose, on the other hand, is as flowing and subtly beautiful as water.

what a noob
