"I Hate Women" by Anon

>>17882300
Sixty Stories by Donald Barthelme. It’s kind of Avant Garde or abstract. Barely any plot or character development in any stories. Not sure I really get it but I have been skipping around reading the more famous stories. “Robert Kennedy Saved from Drowning” is interesting. The collage of unlike things together is cool because often the feelings it inspires feels sort of subconscious, like some magic effect or hypnotism.

The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner

Pretty fun, zealous memoir is a lot better than the editor's section

Fear and Trembling

Imperial Twilight by Stephen Platt

>>17883477
that's really good, and the only book that remotely came close to describing what i experienced myself while working in japan; it was extremely depressing having to talk to "BASED NIHON" normies from back home during that time

>>17883863
You went to Japan so you're retarded so your opinion is dumb

>>17883890
i'm from a shithole country, so it's excusable

Augustine's Confessions

Listening to and reading
The Consolation of Philosopy Boethius
liking it a lot, even the poetry things, albeit, there's over 25 english translations, it's probably comes and goes
I've gotten really sloppy and slowed down to a halt as if. I gotta start using my timer again and sleep (smarter and more)

Been reading a Dialogue of Plato every day for the last week or so, and then I've got Schopenhauer's WWI on the go. Fiction around bed - either Borges or some poetry, mostly Shelley or Dickinson at the moment.

>reading book on how to read a book
how do you know that you're reading that book correctly?

>>17882300
boooooooooooooooooook
On chapter ten, only picked it up the other day.

Ethics

>>17888294
do you recommend it?

>>17882300
The first Resident Evil book

I always sleep with clothes on in a t shirt and knickers and I'm reading IJ and the Eschaton chapter might just filter me.

>>17888294
Me too! just started.

>>17888829
Never met anyone who did not love that chapter, even people who did not like the book seem to like Eschaton.

>>17888614
Of course! It's a priceless work friend. Take your time with it though.

>>17888846
Nice, I'm at part 4 myself. Taking my time, although I'll be happy with myself to of finished it eventually.

>>17882300
H.P. Lovecraft's The Whisperer in Darkness, Frankenstein is next, then maybe Toilers Of The Sea

>>17882300
The Thebaid by Statius.

>>17882300
The complete collection of Sherlock Holmes

>>17888875
I just finished it. The initial pages with all the technical jargon and science I thought were going to filter me but goddamn once the whole thing starts, it is so engrossing and everything that happens after the snowfall begins is so fucking hilarious I laughed so hard my jaw actually kind of hurts from keeping that smiley face for 10+ minutes

>>17882300
I finished American Psycho last night. I think I will start Nabokov today.

>>17889110
I've been meaning to read that book, but haven't found copies of it yet. Is it better than the movie?

Men against Everest by Eric Shipton

The Message by Ryan Montgomery

>>17885829
Finish it.
As far as thoughts go taking out all the religious, circuitous 'reasoning', most the first half is stuff i've considered around my graduation far back. Nothing was learned or gained. Become very predictable and annoying, so i rushed the latter half.
On the other hand, is probably doesn't have much competition from the 6. century, but I judge given what I know and what I've read.
