/lit/ - Literature

Just read one book. It’s better to read and understand one book very well than it is to read through thousands of books you won’t even remember a single detail from years later.

Overcome death. Find biological Immortality.

You'll never run out of good books to read

>>19669117
It solves itself as you read more books. Now I just look at the cover and know whether or not it's going to be shit. Like this one, you just know it's going to be a heavy scifi take on race and masculinity in professional sports and it was.

How many books do you want to read?

>>19669130
I'd want to read the complete works of all major philosophers and writers, that'll take most of the time.

>>19669117
I only read the synopsis of books, and if it to long I don't bother

I can read all the books I ever plan to read within the span of one year

Learn to be picky and see the patterns in what you read, its mostly rehashed.

>How do you deal with this problem?
Post HUNDREDS of wojacks whining about it

Acquire phylactery, fuck bitches.

Just read Plato. All of Western philosophy is but a series of footnotes to his works.

Looks like that Adam wan comic

Just read Kant. All post kantian philosophy is but a footnote to kant.

Problem?
It's like being born with more money than you need in your entire life.

This is a good thing. It would be worse if ran out of books to read within your lifetime

>>19669117
>There are more books I want to read than I have time in my lifetime.
Maybe at your present rate.

>>19669117
Do not waste time on books that aren't good. If you get 50 pages in and it's not doing it for you, set it aside. If you find the urge to take it up again, give it one more shot. If it doesn't take, move on.

I roll my eyes every time I see one of these "I want to read but don't have time" threads on 4chan.
