Damm you're really upset I read 68 books from a list of 100? Grow up. I read to entertain myself.

>>20502185
Yeah wtf does op even read lol

>>20502185
i wish you had to read 100/100 of these books to post on this subreddit

>>20502114
>boo hooo me no read as much as other peolple!!!! they must be dumb ones!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrr

>>20502114
>how do you read a whole book in one week and remember it?

>>20502196
Did...did you just say- 'sub-reddit'?
I'm sorry but you need to go back.

>>20502114
The only reason to finish the vast majority of entries on this list is to impress art hoes. Look at >>20493152 to see what happens when you don't remember what happens in a book because you dropped it. You will get shown up by art hoes. Embarrassing.

>>20502211
>Don't try to impress art hoes
Problem solved

>>20502114
lazy ass excuse, OP. the more you read, the faster you will read, and the more you will retain. also, get into rereading.

>>20502114
>So why waste it trying to reach a quota. If I read a book, even if I'm half way through, and don't like it I drop it. I've got one life and I'm not getting any younger so why waste it torturing myself reading pseud books to try an appear more interesting than I am?
Or maybe there are people on this board who aren't plebs who actually like these books.

>>20502114
>Surely at some point reading that many books just becomes a past time

Going outside and experiencing life too much is a scam. How many of those parties and those trips do you entirely remember?

>>20502114
>So, people was saying
Are you black?

87. 2014 was a pretty good year for the top 100. I should really give The Good Earth another read, I really did enjoy it.

Are you retarded? Reading 30-40 books a year is not a superhuman feat. Spend three years reading and you will have read a hundred great books. You are saying the equivalent of "this guy just played a chopin piece on the piano, how many of those notes can this guy even remember?" Bitch every single one, because he spent a hundred hours learning that shit. Meanwhile you sit on your ass and don't understand why you're not on the same level without putting in any of the work. Get reading, or get the fuck out, i don't care. Your thread is shit and so are you.

>>20502114
Anon are you telling me you cant remembet parts of movies or games you have played? Why would you assume books cant be remembered if you have read many of them?

He should've taken notes while eating and written a summary after each meal.

lmao

>>20502196
Those 100 are not the only books in the world, you know.

>>20502114
>how many of these books does he actually remember.
They're not textbooks you tard. You dont need to memorize any book in its entirety to get by. You get something out of them that connected with you and move on. They are dense and people should probably think about integrating what they read more, but at the end of the day its a good use of your time

>>20502114
>remember. Like,
>Like,
Stopped reading there. Anyone who uses "like" is either a simpleton brute or a woman (same thing) and their opinion does not matter.

>>20502114
>Like, when anons on here talk about how they read a book a week, how much of it do they actually remember?
I'm reading roughpy a book a day and I run through the book in my head, chapter by chapter, after I finish reading it
keep in mind though that you can also reread books

>keep in mind though that you can also reread books
Most pseuds will never realize this. They think you can only read a book once.

>>20502114

>tfw i've read 2.5 of those books
Yeah I guess you could say Im somewhat of a book worm
