You have to read AA Milne before Nietzsche, even the fourteen year old edgelords do that first. Get better parents.

Avoid any books printed with s-o-y ink. They are GMOed and full of Estrogen.

Reading doesn't make you better, don't fall of this meme, you'll only end up reading out of social obligation instead of enjoyment.

People who read to become "readers" or even worse, "warrior poets", are insufferable morons. Read because you enjoy it.

Just don't make the mistake so many make, and pick up reading because its "intellectual" and will make you more impressive.

Read for yourself.
If you want some good literature to read, pick up some Tolstoy (try some of his shorter works), Shakespeare (pick a play that interests you), and whoever the fuck you wanna read

I'd recommend starting off with something "simple", if you're looking to get into lit. 1984, Brave New World, The Stranger all come to mind.
