Is this an ok collection for a sixteen year old? I also have ~50 less interesting books that include all the goosebumps and captain underpants, but I'm sure none of you want to see that.

Collections don't count unless you read them

Those are some awesome books you've never opened, OP.

Congratulations on acquiring stuff that'll sit on a shelf until the garage sale your kids have after you die.

You. You're awesome.

to answer your question
Nitezche
Marx
Plato
Aristotle
Edgar allan Poe
and lord of the flies
are all standard 16yr old readings they are sufficiently intellectual enough that u can drown out the dumb that your peers are trying to infect you with
>>3773661
i also don't think you read them all but my bookshelf is full of books i haven't read yet the ones i read i put in a box in the attic or hand out to friends. I don't need to look at things i wont be reading again.

Utopia and those curious new cults are interesting thou nice job venturing from the well known generic intellectual authors

All these (arguably) great philosophers and writers, pioneers of their time, still revelant to this day and probably alltrough the future of the human civilisation - their books are great, yes.
You, though, have decided not to study their ideas and discus them, but just to acquire the imaginary street cred that comes with owning neat editions of their books, mentioning them and keeping them in shelves for some elitist photo quickies. Reminds me of some people in Soviet Union who would prove their intelectual provess by buying every book available on the market and keeping them in their expensive, imported bookcases.

And, rather than responding to this post, just pick up one of those books and study what it says. Or just make a thread which is not this one.

Or, if you're a troll - well done.

>> No.3773721

Are you more interested in showing your bookcase by your age than actually discussing the said books? It seems to me that this thread is implying that.

>actually discussing the said books?

I can't discuss the books because I haven't even read them. Read the whole thread before you comment in it, okay? thanks.

>> No.3773741

Mods plz.

>> No.3773746

I don't like discussing the ideas, my interpretations are always so far off.

Since you're a stupid and a wholly-bragging 16 year old, half of the books on that shelf are going straight over your head.
