The third edition of CBT: Basics and Beyond by Beck.

I’m in my backyard reading Napoleon: A Life by Andrew Roberts. Just finished Part 1 which ended with the coup of 18 Brumaire. About to make a coffee and continue.

>>18852929
Rawls, I fucking hate him and want to read Hegel, Bataille and Marx.

>>18852929
Gonna get some more Murakami done today.

>>18852939

I drink seltzers casually in social situations but your comment really flipped the switch in my head. There really is no reason to not just drink vodka and club soda/seltzer. It's even healthier, as far as drinking can be healthy.

For me it's coffee, a handrolled cigarette and Lolita.

The republic, Penguin Classics edition

Book on homeopathic bird remedies

Ashenden - W. Somerset Maugham

i finished my second reading of stoner. i got teary eyed towards the end and i knew i would.

>>18852929
Metamorphoses. Ngl it's not gripping me and I feel like I'm missing whatever was valuable in it by reading it in English.

>>18852940
>get wood tipped next time
will do. Thanks for the advice.

>>18852957
Years out from my psychology degree. Beck was pretty essential. Didn't realize his daughter did research too. Kinda like a Anna Freud situation.

>>18853167
What did you end up going with?

>>18853705
Where would you recommend starting with Maugham? Been itching to read Of Human Bondage.

>>18854058
I'm reading it for fun. I'mstudying computer science.

>>18854058
I don't know lol. Ashenden is the first book I read by him. I wanted to read it because Alfred Hitchcock used it as the basis for his film Secret Agent. I'll probably read Honolulu next, because I'm from Honolulu.

reading don quixote, started a couple days ago and been being lazy about it

>>18853185
Gin and tonic has been the white family drink for many generations

>>18852929

>>18853216
Sounds like a big shit

>>18852929
damn that pairing is trashy, i can tell you're in your early 20's

SPQR by Mary Beard

Magee's Hegel and the Hermetic Tradition alongside Hegel's Differenzschrift.

Mason and Dixon. Not very far in yet.

>>18853115

Can you be anymore reddit? Fucking kys.

>>18855721
Damn, guilty as charged anon.

>>18853757
after reading this i read conversations by cesar airas which i didn't really enjoy. it was interesting and clever for about 30 pages before the shtick got stale and annoying. well written, regardless, but not my taste. i sped read to the end and don't feel i missed much.

then i started reading the sailor that fell from grace with the sea. i'm about a third into that now and will finish it tomorrow. i wasn't impressed really until the bit where the boys meet up and their strange nihilistic club gets going with the kitty violence, which was horrific but mesmerising. the bits with the mother and the sailor were so-so. the boy is the interesting character.

>>18853983
Then read it it latin?

Reading some David markson today

>>18853181

your racism and misogyny is showing incel

>>18852929

Gee, that sure is a pristine copy with Absolutely no signs of active, Sprited reading, OP!

Honestly a bit shit so far but I like books that expose industries for being full of shit especially from insiders. I rather trust myself to do research on whats good for my diet and health but that’s because my major is biochem anyway

>>18852929
Try pipes. They're way cheaper than nice cigars and taste just as good, if not better. A corncob costs $4.95 and an ounce of bulk tobacco costs the same price.

Mason and Dixon. For Pynchon being one of /lit/'s favorites, there are hardly ever any actual discussion threads about his books that go beyond some people stumbling through the first hundred pages of Gravity's Rainbow and asking questions.

Literotica interracial stories.

>>18856757
The first chapter of Mason and Dixon is one of the prettiest things I have ever read.

>>18856534
pipes r awkward to smoke in public tho

I'll be reading Wuthering Heights tonight. It's shaping up to be a nice read so far.

Then I've got to read some stuff for the channel.

>>18858149
Agreed, but how many public places allow you to smoke? How many such places are good for reading too?

Not much of a story, but it's entertaining.

>>18852929
Started reading the Sharpe series in publication order.
