    I finished M-train by Patti smith, was easy to read and beautiful, ne-filled, reflections on her life in non-linear way as well as relating different trips and small adventures. Filled with her soul in a gentle honest unpretentious way. Mainly I think it was her coming to grips with losing her husband.

    Read part 1 on Born to Run, nice to hear Springsteen's voice more intimately, it is more linear and conventional building up tension bit by bit all along the journey of how he became who he did and how his career took flight in incremental ways and what he had to do to keep his dreams going.

    @aster if you like norwegian wood, then I recommend checking out kafka on the shore. it's my favorite murakami book even though I never finished it.

    here's a short story by him, if you're curious about his writing style: https://harpers.org/archive/2003/07/birthday-girl/

    Homo Deus, by Yuval Noah Harari
    https://www.amazon.de/Homo-Deus-Yuva...sap_bc?ie=UTF8

    I haven't been this disappointed with a book for quite some time. I'm halfway trough and instead of a fresh new look on human beings, our world and history I got a bed time story for adults. The author is cherry picking from science and history to support his notion, that where the world and humanity is heading isn't as bad is it appears to be. I tried hard to read this book to the end but I can't help but think how much the author is removed from reality.

    I'm not happier having read this book. But it's a pretty good book, albeit intense.

    I like her discussing, informal style. Lots of stuff in there to think about.

    Let me know if you find something interesting. I've also been reading this book lately.
    The decisive thing is not the reality of the object, but the reality of the subjective factor, i.e. the primordial images, which in their totality represent a psychic mirror-world. It is a mirror, however, with the peculiar capacity of representing the present contents of consciousness not in their known and customary form but in a certain sense sub specie aeternitatis, somewhat as a million-year old consciousness might see them.

    Currently reading Eighty-Sixed by David Feinberg. Its engaging and an interesting uncensored look into the 80s NYC gay scene but the humor is kinda kitschy and cutesy for me. The protagonist doesn't have AIDS yet though so I don't know if this tone will continue.

    The last book I really, really enjoyed was Rule of the Bone by Russell Banks. I don't know if this is a sparkling recommendation though because I eat up any and all coming of age novels.

    I started reading kerouacs the subterraneans, i've never read anything from him before and maybe this was the wrong one to start with. I'm distracted from his world by my judgements of him being a fuckboy. A "product of his time" yeah yeah. I really have to gear up my brain to make it through his frenetic prose and im not sure the payoff is worth it. Should I read on the road instead?

    I doubt if his type changed much between books.

    When you read an author, you are basically spending time inside their heads. I find the inside of some author's heads to be interesting places to spend time and look around, and some are not.

    I wouldn't say its not interesting. I just think i'm not being fair in my reactions. When he actually hits on something kind of beautiful to me I imagine him flexing in front of Ginsberg and Burroughs and kissing his biceps while he recites it or something. But maybe I'll warm up to him, I haven't finished the book yet

    Reading Lair of Dreams by Libba Bray currently, about 35% in. It's the second book in the Diviners series. Think I might end up liking this one better than the first, and I gave the first 5 stars on GR. Even though I can't stand the MC, Evie, I still to seem like it...atmospheric and fits perfectly for around this time of year....

    I started reading a book about insider trading at a hedge fund and it was sociopathic and repetitive so I switched to reading a book about the catholic church(...) I read an amazon preview of "Crime and Punishment."

    I'm still savoring LET THERE BE LIGHT: MODERN COSMOLOGY & THE KABBALAH. Reading it in my environment has oftentimes seemed like a downright mystical experience.

    i gave away half my dune books and my kindle is unrepairably fucked so i tried starting to reread the first three prequal dune books about the butlerian jihad but jesus christ this is horrible writing. there's plot holes and contradictions literally from page to page and it reads like the weird 5th grade kid drawing stick figure wars while making explosion sounds. i didn't remember them being this bad, but it's jarring af going directly from a frank herbert dune to his sons.

    Checked out Kingdom of Ash (Throne of Glass #7) by Sarah J. Maas. I'm really tired of Maas anymore. In the beginning I really liked her books, but now the attitude of the MC's in a few of her book series started grating on me. Books getting really good reviews, and I've read the other 6, so I figured I'd give it a go. Unfortunately it's abt a 1000 pages. This better be damn good. lol I've only made it 2 chapters in. I've been busy.

    Also checked out The Mysterious Affair at Styles. This will be my first Agatha Christie book

    When I was about fourteen, I read this book called The Hobbit. It was a funny little book filled with child-like characters and goofy magic. I liked it and so started on the trilogy by the same author, called Lord of the Rings.
    By the time I got to the end of the third book, many of the characters I had grown to love were dead, fighting a desperate war against an evil that was both horrifying and a part of us all.

    When I turned the last page and found myself back in my little room, I did what any person would do in those circumstances. I went back and started reading The Hobbit again. Imagine my shock to find the writing style reduced to a third grade level.

    The Rise and Fall of the Great Powers (Paul Kennedy). A nice history book about the modern era (since ~1500 AD) written from a somewhat Whiggish (IKR ) / bourgeois historical perspective.

    A few additional books that have been recommended to me:

    The Deluge (Adam Tooze)

    The Wages of Destruction (Adam Tooze), which is about the Nazi economy.

    @xerxe I thought The Rise and Fall of the Great Powers was very good. You might like From Dawn to Decadence: 500 Years of Western Cultural Life, 1500 to the Present by Jacques Barzun

    Halfway through The Wicked King by Holly Black. So far I like it, but I’m hoping what I want to happen happens or I’m going to be extremely disappointed. Well maybe not, but I think I know what’s going to happen and I really hope it does lol

    The selection of books available at the Internet Archive is quite remarkable.

    I would not be surprised if they have 80% or 90% of the 1315 books that make up the various Boxall's 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die lists.

    It is best to search via the main page, choosing the search filter "Search text contents", although there is also the Books to Borrow and Open Library. Books in the Open Library section are freely available, whereas those in the Books to Borrow section can only be loaned for 14 days and you may have to join a waitlist and wait for a while. When a book is available to loan (and read), you get an email, which is almost as exhilarating as hedgehopping or making like a shark.

    An author I recently enjoyed is Jeanette Winterson: she has a very vivid use of language and her works are easy to digest due to being bite-sized.

    (I've been partly focusing recently on shorter works that are well-regarded).

    I also liked We by Yevgeny Zamyatin. It reminded me of the George Lucas film THX 1138, which is marvellous. It is a dystopian fiction, basically.

    I also thought Sostiene Pereira (Pereira Maintains) by Antonio Tabucchi is a good short story: it is about some journalist dealing with limits on the press during an oppressive regime (in this case, the Salazar regime in Portugal, the guy who gave his name to Salazar Slytherin).

    I started reading Charles Stross’ “Glasshouse” and had to stop after an abysmal fight scene, a ludicrous sex scene, an imaginative description of human travel through wormholes as if they were information packets through routers, and then an enthusiastic eating lunch scene. Stross is LII and has great technical ideas but can’t write.

    Recovered by reading Raymond Chandler’s “The Big Sleep”, which has great atmospheric scenes and dialog but an improbable plot.

    I got about halfway through Liu Cixin’s novel “Ball Lightning” before I realized that the boring writing was not going to change. Perhaps his “Three Body Problem” will be better, but I’m not optimistic.

    Read “Something Coming Through” by Paul J. McAuley, which is a Detectives in Space novel. The Detective part flows along well enough and the aliens are novel and interesting, but it wasn’t great.

    Now I’ve re-read the first two chapters of Robert Heinlein’s “Starship Troopers”. When I first read this book at age 16, I thought it was the best book I had ever read. I still think it’s pretty great. Heinlein is LIE.
    His book “Stranger in a Strange Land” is garbage, as are all of his following books, but the books he wrote prior to this were very good.

    has anyone read any Donna Tartt to recommend?
    The Passion, and Written on the Body specifically (I preferred The Passion). I certainly intend to read her other stuff. As for recommendations by other authors, I'd suggest Orlando by Virginia Woolf, The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera, maybe also Midnight's Children & The Satanic Verses by Salman Rushdie. You might also enjoy On Love by Alain de Botton.

    cool : ) I've read Orlando, The Unbereable etc etc and the Satanic Verses already... all great amazing books.. thanks for Alain de Botton, I'll give it a try!

    By Jeanette Winterson, my favs are "Sexing the Cherry" and "Oranges are not the only fruit"

    I love love The Secret History. Definitely recommend. I tried listen to it on audio but it was Donna Tartt narrating and her accent grates on me (I feel terrible for saying this, but it’s true).

    I want to read The Goldfinch after liking Secret History so much. Actually, I might just read that next.

    I have a feeling you would like The Secret History, from reading your posts, but I could be wrong.

    (sorry I’m a little obsessed with that book and I get excited about sharing my book obsessions)

    I'm currently reading The Dead Zone by Stephen King. I love his books so far, they never disappoint

    This is a list of authors ranked by the proportion of my Goodreads friends who give at least 4 stars out of 5 to at least one work for that author. The % WS column is simply how each author compares to William Shakespeare in terms of frequency. I thought people might find it useful as a way of deciding which authors to explore next.

    1047 authors are included. Those in red text are not "proper" authors (Anonymous, Unknown, Founding Fathers, Various, Walt Disney Company).

    The list will naturally be skewed towards the taste of my Goodreads friends, especially lower down in the list.

    The first ten in that list that I "don't like" (those I haven't rated above 3 stars out of the stuff of theirs I've read): Aldous Huxley, Margaret Atwood, William Golding, Joseph Conrad, Albert Camus, Gabriel García Márquez, Vladimir Nabokov, Graham Greene, T.S. Eliot, and Joseph Heller.

    This is a list of books ranked by the proportion of my Goodreads friends who give at least 4 stars out of 5 to the respective book. The GR Book ID is the unique number on Goodreads for each book (that is helpful for identifying books seeing as I haven't bothered to include the names of authors (because that would be inordinately time-consuming)).
    The % 1984 column is simply how each book compares to 1984 by George Orwell in terms of frequency. I thought people might find it useful as a way of deciding which books to read next.

    1020 books are included.

    The list will naturally be skewed towards the taste of my Goodreads friends, especially lower down in the list. Looking at the top of the list, there doesn't seem to be any immediately obvious correlation to what I deem my own taste to be: it just seems to be a list of recognized classics and recently popular works, which I know that I generally regard as better than less well-known works.

    I think this list is more interesting than a ranking based on number of ratings on Goodreads (popularity) & average rating, even though that is basically saying that my Goodreads friends have better taste than the average Goodreads member.
