Are there any LNs worth reading?

i want this so fucking much why aren't there some giant 2d cute girls sitting on me right now?

Thanks for the recommendation, user. I'll give it a read once I'm done with my current volume. Does it contain spoilers or is it just speculative?

Monogatari is genuinely fantastic if you can read moon runes

Isn't the author also a commie.

If he is he knows how to appeal to the other political field.

fuck off cunt

re:zero

Spice and wolf is fun if nothing else. Fairly sure the economic in it are bullshit, but still it's comfy.

Also does anyone else switch back and forth between reading LNs and non-fiction books each time he finishes one?

I recently read it since it was recommended by someone here in /lit.
It is definately better than most LN trash but I found it to be quite slow, too many monologues. It will often play something like this
Character1: *Says any 1 line sentence"
3 paragraph monologue about what this means and what philosophical and military implications it has
Character2: *simple 1 sentence response*
2 paragraphs explaining why this response should bring the best result based on characters current underestanding and goals.
and so on and so on.

I enjoyed it because I don't mind the huge and sometimes very repetitive philosophical monologues but if you don't enjoy them as much it will be insufferable.

I enjoy the monologues a lot; they never got repetitive with me. They remind me a bit of how Don Quixote would go on long philosophical tirades; I kind of dreaded their approach but whenever they started they were always a delight to read. Except that with Youjo Senki there's barely any space between them so I never got that sense of respite and thus I never dreaded their approach; I just kept going.
Although losing track of the conversation or of whom is talking can get a little irritating.

I did enjoy them since I am already a fan of military theory, but I could definately identify various points he kept on making to the point where I grew a little tired of them, mainly when he was going on theological tirades rather than political or military ones.

Not all can be winners, I suppose. What's important is that there's more weight on the good side of the balance. And even when it gets a little tedious, I admit, it being a novel narrated in the first person (when Tanya is the focus and when most monologues are compressed) it still works for me, as not only is she describing politics and military ideas, but she's also exhibiting her character. I am willing to put up with a bit of trite writing if it fits the characterization of its main character/narrator.

It honestly depends on what I'm in the mood for after finishing a book. Usually I don't want more of the same; if I've finished reading a thesis I'd rather go read some fiction, or vice versa. Sometimes I finish a novel and go for a bit of poetry instead. I haven't read many LNs, though. What could I expect from Spice and Wolf? I've heard it praised on multiple occasions.

Based, I really liked Boogiepop. Any news on if the other novels will get translated?

Spice and Wolf is probably one of the most "sophisticated" ones you will find.
I also enjoyed Gosick and am currently enjoying Cop Craft quite a lot. I've read all of them in japanese though, don't know how good the translations are.
