About 2/3 of the way through. I don't know what I was expecting from this book, but damn if I'm not impressed. This shit puts /trash/ to shame. Putrid, vile, monstrous, beautiful.

Very interesting and exciting, would recommend.
I have gotten a couple of boners from it also lol

Why do I find this book to be very therapeutic?

Recommend more books like this one.

What did he mean by this?

120 Days of Sodom. I loved jerking it to that shit.

I'm getting back into reading, the book I've started with is 120 days of Sodom...
I'm so fucked.

Arthur Rimbaud was gay m8
Better go with good ol' Sade

Is this worth the read?

About to start reading this, what should I expect?

The reason why I have not read a single raw book in my life is because, whenever I tried to read the whole book, I got bored and ended my interest in the book immediately. Another reason is because of the language that most of the authors seem to use in their books. It gives me a headache and they seem extremely vague. Sometimes they are the opposite, just way too specific about rather insignificant details.

To be frank, not even books that are very relevant to my current scholarship are that much interesting. I swore to myself that I'd finish Screenplay by Syd Field, but obviously never did. His book was great. His way of conveying a message was straight to the point and simple for me to understand, but I still got bored after one-third of its total.

To repeat, I have nothing against people that read books or even the books themselves, but the reason I am making this thread is because it seems like every single person around me has read at least one book. Is there something wrong with me? I seem to score perfectly fine on English essays I write at school - but am I missing something for not reading literature?

Why? Why not?
