I'm a highschool pleb which would want to start reading more this summer. Maybe about 10 books? Even more if I can.
So, what do you guys recommend me?

>> No.11247910

I think The Road by Cormac McCarthy is a good place to start right after high school. Pretty easy to read, although maybe it's too much of a love it or hate it type book, but I'd say try it out

Phenomenology of the Spirit - Hegel
It's my favorite novel of all time, basically narrates of the story of this guy named Geist as he embarks on a journey through history in order to find xherself.

Don't start reading philosophy books too early, they will only make you go schizo by 25

I would recommend Fifty Shades of Grey so you can understand the degenerate mind of the average thots who reads this crap.

complex and trolling, you won't be ready for these.

perfect entry level novel.

this person speaks truths.

For other summerfags I recommend East of Eden, Zooey and Franny, Demian, Slaughterhouse 5, The Death of Ivan Illyich, Notes from Underground, and Stoner.

For non entry level Summerfags: Beware of Pity, Free Fall, The Castle, The Nix, Voss, Lolita, Sons and Lovers, No Longer Human, and The Sorrows of Young Werther.

Poor expression on my part - Hegel is excellent. I called it trolling because it really isn't what OP is seeking.

go to the /lit/ sticky and click the link for recommended reading and get to the /lit/ starter kit. those are 10 relatively easily digestible fiction books if you want to start reading more. please note that lolita is by far the hardest of the books mentioned on this list, and its probably not wise to take that one as your first pick.
