What are you currently reading and is it any good?
Blake Evans
Anthony Martinez
The Virtue of Nationalism by Yoram Hazony
It's okay. It's restating a lot of stuff, and I didn't agree with his analysis that nationalism is not totalitarianism.
Hudson Foster
Watchmen, it's ight but haven't picked up yet
Julian Brooks
Dopefiend by Donald Goines
meh
Aaron Davis
Scribbling The Cat. Enjoying it so far, four chapters in. Wish there was more literature about Rhodesia
Hunter Morgan
The Grapes of Wrath
it's phenomenal, they only had us read the Pearl and Of Mice and Men in school
Ryder Stewart
Guide for the Perplexed. Yes, it's really interesting.
Tyler Clark
The Road - Cormac McCarthy
Really adds nicely to my crippling depression. Added bonus while reading it: Construction work started outside my house and it sounds like constant doomy drone music.
Jose Richardson
Ignatius Catholic Study Bible
It is good. I like the cross references to the CCC.
Samuel Jenkins
RSV2CE?
Connor Mitchell
The Death Ship by B. Traven
Benjamin Roberts
I just finished (re-)reading dubliners. Yes, it's good. Next I'm gonna read Kawabata's Dandelions.
John Thompson
Within a Budding Grove. The prepubescent romance between Gilberte and the narrator is very cute and I dig the attention to psychological detail, mainly because we'll never be able to obtain a same level of understanding that Proust did because the society he lived in no longer exists for us. That being said the prose while very beautiful sometimes gives me the impression of drowning.
Henry Morales
1984, and then I’m going to read Homage to Catalonia next
Michael Peterson
Yep.
Juan Smith
"Las sombras del pájaro tostado," de Ricardo Molinari
es genial
Justin Hall
Brave New World for the first time.
It's kind of boring. I mean I get the message, but the writing just drones on.
Jaxon Jackson
Dracula. It´s really good so far and I like the way that the story is told by diary entries.
Liam Butler
Les chants de maldoror by lautréamont
Very good !
Dylan White
The Loser by Thomas Bernhard
Based, I wanted to read his work a long time ago.
Connor Martinez
One hundred years of solitude
Based book
I recommend Baudelaire too
Elijah Anderson

gosh no
Caleb Martin
V. Thomas Pynchon
Logan Perry
The Tragic Sense of Life by Unamuno
I'm very engaged because he's addressing some of the issues I have about science and rationality in general. As someone who reads and continues to read a majority in the natural sciences, more specifically the brain sciences, it's hard to develop a model of the world that is free ofa giant void. Yeah it's a 'cope' but he does make points I haven't considered on the nature of subjectivity.
Bentley Sullivan
The Bell Jar
Really enjoying so far, much more than I'd imagined I would.
Alexander Turner
The first issue of Vastarien, it's very mixed, but "The Gods in their Seats, Unblinking" and the essay by the child trauma therapist will haunt me.
Chase Morales
>Buddenbrooks-Thomas Mann
Enjoying it so far. The opening was really warm and wholesome, I know I'm going to have trouble keeping up with who's who later on in the novel. I wish there was some sort of family tree in my edition but I am liking it.
Owen Garcia
The Three Body Problem
yeah it's good. nice existential horror feel.
Daniel Gutierrez
Gogol's Dead Souls. After the first 30 pages I read last night, I think it seems good.
Mason Moore
low IQ department
Adrian Allen
Jeez the amount of people who read fiction here is cringy.
Why are you on Yea Forums instead of reddit?
Owen Hall
It's not his fault he was deprived of oxygen and chosen to be clad in black clothes.
David Miller
The Temple of the Golden Pavilion
I have about 45 pages left, and it's been extremely fucking bad. Incessant, pseudo-philosophical ramblings (supposedly) about beauty, but it's actually complete fucking nonsensical drivel. It's the first Mishima book I've read, and I truly hope it's also his worst.
Jack White
Sailor Who Fell from Grace with the Sea is better and has a simpler and easier to grasp philosophical message on the first reading. You should've started with that one.
Kevin Howard
Tractatus,
It's the last book I'll read in my life
Adam Rodriguez
Confederacy of Dunces
Ignatius is literally me
Brayden Lewis
Encheiridion, Epictetus
Impressive because it is exactly how I already think and act. Like I would read a book about my behavior
9/10
Isaac Barnes
Batavia's Graveyard
I'm maybe 3/5's of the way through it according to my ereader.
Liam Flores
Bede’s Ecclesiastical History of the English People
I'm certainly enjoying it.
Xavier Moore
The Square and the Tower. It's essentially a late night wikipedia deep dive. If you're vaguely knowledgeable about the freemasons, Rothschilds and the Vietnam War, you won't gain much from it. Would be very useful for anyone who knows nothing about conspiracy but has a decent understanding of world history.
Pro-Israel propaganda.
1984 was the strawman fallacy, written well. Brave New World figured out what was going on, but is written poorly. Neither of them are particularly enlightening if you've read the Bible.
Incredible book. If you apply the description of Dracula and what his abilities and limitations were to particular groups in the world that cause a lot of grief, you can see why Bram Stoker was able to write such a good villain. One of the few horror books to make me anxious about what was going one.
Tractatus is not very useful except as a thought exercise. It doesn't help you understand the world or show you a way to navigate it. Late Wittgenstein is better.
