i began reading like 2 weeks ago, i finished 1984 and animal farm, which i really liked, now i just bought Nausea by Sartre, i read that it talked about some deep mental thoughts which im really into, anyone else got reccomendations? i'll tell later if i liked Nausea or not xd
try Oryx and Crake I guess, it's kind of longish relative to those books but it's got a lot of internet dweller appeal. if you like it you can read the other two books in the series. i never read the third one though.
>>83679425Are you reading books for yourself or someone else?
>>83679469for myself, mostly, i always wanted to read 1984 and went with the flow ig
>>83679493>mostlyHollow activity.
>>83679425I read The Outsider by Albert Camus recently and it was very impactful, I would recommend that.
>>83679691nah i actually have fucking no one so i'm doing it for myself, that mostly was there to add nothing to the cause
>>83679714Sure It was. Sure it was.
>>83679425It's best if you develop your own taste. Im not saying it to be denigrating but those are babbys first steps into literature, so not bad. There's plenty of deep books if you want, you'd maybe like Hesse. I personally like black humor novels, like journey to the end of the night.

>>83679425i once read my struggle by karl ove knausgaard in less than a week. idk why it hooked me so much but i'm thinking about reading it again. its a series of autobiographical novels totaling thousands of pages over 6 volumes.it doesnt require anything of the reader and it doesnt go anywhere. it just asks you to inhabit it if you want to which is easy with how he writes. its just something to track almost like rain, very frictionless. its like you become him and can rest as him for as long as you're reading. either you get this and like it or you wont. id think most libraries have it
>>83681582i always wondered why this is named after the hitlerino book
>>83679425Stand on Zanzibar is another good one. It's about a lot of people standing and it takes place in Zanzibar
The Problem Of Political Authority by Michael Huemer. He's a very intelligent philosopher. This book's great.
