I know this is meant to be an allegory for the fall of Leninist ideologies, but death of the author and all that.

Sup, /lit/.
Let's discuss The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
How hungry was that caterpillar exactly? And what was the source of his hunger?

Hello /lit/...

Exam break is coming up and I just found out my College Library has 'extended loans'. These last over the duration of my break so I wish to pick up some reading material.

I used to read a lot as a child but stopped during Highschool. The most recent thing I've read was the Wheel of Time series(got to book 8 and quit due to CLOTHES AND BRAIDS).

Recommended reading? The only other stuff I can recall reading recently were random books I found lying around:
The Odyssey, The Garden of Eden, Time Must Have a Stop, Zen And The Art Of...

Likely going to suffer through some Rand. My roommate keeps preaching her and from what I gather Objectivism seems to be rather silly. So I want to educate myself on the subject.

Open to anything really. Kind of at a time of self reflection and WHOAMI LOLDEEP time.

Thanks...

Forgot my picture.

Also I use "book" very lightly.

No book can compete to this bad boy! Seriously, that fucking story! Christ, I started crying.

If your life was a book, what the fuck would you call it?
