The Bibble EXPLICITLY states that women should be murdered if they learn how to read.

Society is collapsing.

>>20569247
Wtf I love Christianity now

>>20569247
So what should they do with them?
In what way can a woman spiritually fulfil herself?

mass literacy was a mistake, what's the point of teaching plebs how to read? so they can understand the back of the cheeto bag or so they can gobble up this pulpy shit no better than a netflix show?

>>20569239
This is an attempt to make books seem boring to people
Some girl is going to pick up a book like that and read it while pretending it's entertaining, but deep inside she will just start hating books. "Books are boring, believe me, I tried reading them"

Marry early. Stay loyal. Raise kids

>>20569239
I've never even heard of any of these let alone read them

>>20569239
>BookTok
If my gf recommends me one more book from that shit, I'm smashing her phone.

>>20569239

you know that lit doesn't read books, let alone contemporary ones.

i read A Little Life. it was fine. it at least has a little more going for it than all the YA romance up there.

Fixed

YOU QUESTION THE WORD OF THE MIGHTY JIMMY?

Anon posted the Evelyn Hugo cover on here once and I saw it. By /lit/'s standards that means I have read all of them plus another table.

>>20569239
Wife read Evelyn Hugo and it sounded pretty good. Historical fiction about being in the closet in early Hollywood.

>>20569542
Idk man, teens and infantilized women gobble shit like song of achilles up. Don't underestimate female mental illness

>In what way can a woman spiritually fulfil herself?
You just insert your erect penis into her vagina.

>>20569239
Zero. I do not read schlock.

>>20569239
My gf has read Seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo and quite liked it IIRC.

>>20569239
I've read We Were Liars during one of those moments of absolute boredom, it was okay, I guess. It was one of those stories where there is a lot of potential, but it could have used more work.
It's basically about three generations of a family obsessed with keeping appearances, only it all starts to fall apart after grandma dies. The twist became rather obvious long before happening, but it was a nice touch that the main character was the one to accidentally kill them through her own stupidity.

>>20569239
Imagine letting your kids read this shit when there are masterpieces at lower prices. Also the political agenda is pretty clear from most of those books: faggotry, homosexuality (lesbians mostly), insane amounts of witchcraftery.

>>20569239
I need to shill my book on tiktok

>>20570459
Okay but the point is that they never have the opportunity to read something better because no one told them that books aren't just that

>>20569710
Do you think that people who read the bible from /lit/ posts know anything about it?

>>20570657
Ofcourse but that's kinda on them too. There's only so much handholding you can do to educate the youth. Adults have even less excuses. This only fucks up female authorship in the long term because women with something new and interesting to say won't get published. I do loathe social media for making the younger peeps believe the world only has shitty romcoms to offer. A tragedy alright.

oh hey, I didn't know that weird gay chinese god story got a translation. If it goes into autistic detail about ancient chinese politics then I might check it out.

>>20570833
isn't that a really fucked up scene in a movie? where have i heard this before?

>>20569239
middle one, "grandmaster of demonic cultivation" is a pretty good fantasy with a gay protagonist.

>>20569710
Who are you quoting?

>>20569239
Exactly zero.

>>20569247
Didn't knew god was that based, i should read the Bible

>>20569681
would it even be possible to shill call so badly it trends on Tik Tok?

>>20569260
he said, the bible

>a good girl's guide to murder
fucking cringe

I tried reading A Little Life, but I found the pacing to be absolutely horrible and it was hard to care about anyone or just the story. The torture porn was cool though, Jude deserved to get beaten and raped.

Other than that I only recognize about 3 books. I've tried very hard to stay away from shitty book that TikTok retards are paid to promote.

>>20569239
How many of these have book tik tok actually read?

>>20569239
1.
A litte life.

It's good.
It's about being a volcel because abuse and crippling autism fucked you up.

I think I'm going to try writing a book again. I feel anything is possible now.

>>20572517
Just make sure you pay some cringey popular booktok accounts to promote your work as if they actually read it.

>>20569239
literature is dead

>>20569239
I make it a point not to read a single thing written in the past 25 years

Based. If the author is alive, I don't want to read it.

>>20569663
I will never understand how A Little Life got onto TikToker’s to-read lists. It’s so far out of their literate ballpark and relentlessly depressing, standing at 800 pages. Never trust any influencer who says they’ve read it.

>>20574086
based retard

>>20569239
do these even have words in them? what would be the point?

Why do girls like TikTok so much?

I saw American Psycho on one of these things

>>20569239
I have read none of them and I NEVER WILL reeeeeee

I saw this section in a bookstore. They also had a display of books about being gay. Meanwhile their entire classics section was the size of a half width Billy bookcase and sparsely filled.
