/lit/ - Literature

18 yo here.
Currently read mythology by Hamilton, half of the way through Iliad and started Brothers Karamazov, also finished Purgatorio few months ago. I have to admit thought that most of my peers don't seem to be part of any communities. All of them mostly just read the same shonen manga and watch anime, not really deep into it just the most mainstream stuff. Ive been paying close attention to conversations of my peers, the only topics I have heard zoomers talk about are:
>shonen manga/anime
>football (UKfag)
>movies/celebrities
>gym
>crypto
other than that its mostly gossip and jokes. Everybody is into the same things and we dont have any small communities. Boys listen to rap/drill/trap, girls listen to American pop, with no exceptions (this opinions might be biased since Im an antisocial nerd).
There are a few ugly girls who (I suspect) read gay manga shit, and a few nerds here and there, other than that nothing really.
Was it any different with your generations? did you really have all the emos and punks and metalheads and nerds and stereotypical football team captains and cheerleaders? or was it the same?
