The Summer Book by Tove Jansson.

Stoner

absolutely Paul Auster
King of mistery writers

has anyone ever read his book ?

>>7134423
no, is it good

>>7134388
Have you ever (as an adult) cuddled closely with someone for extended periods? It is NOT comfortable
Where to put arms/arm falling asleep, not enough leg room to get comfortable, and someone else's body heat all up on you.

Also the use of "comfy" on 4chan is really obnoxious and meaningless. I hate that it is so overused I don't remember everything being comfy this comfy that years ago, it was a word for a special occasion.

Tldr: I am a sperg and I hate this website and site culture but it is an addiction.

Yes , I am sure he is the finest wirter in my book . Once you start read his book ,you will forget your time and be facinated by his world . I strongly you read his book . thank you

The Magic Mountain by Thomas Mann.

Yes , it is and I am sure of it .Once you have a hand on his book , you will forget your time and be facinated . I strongly recomment that you get his book . Please

>>7134220
It's not that comfy...

>>7134446
>It is NOT comfortable
It can be. The heat can be pleasant if blankets are of the appropriate thickness for the time.
Try softer partners maybe

I always post two books in these threads

The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear

and

The Once And Future King

>>7134446
i was talking about shrinking down to a small size and nestling in between a woman's breasts. that is a good point about about the body heat, though. i hadn't thought of that

what does it mean if i have a boob fetish?

>>7134511
you want fuck your mother, that'll be $50, jim.

>>7134504
>>7134446

Spooning is fucking dank, so is cuddling, I pity that you can't experience it comfortably.

>>7134209
18Q4, Colorless Tsukuru whatever

>>7134520

For the little spoon, yes. Big spoon has hair in his face and nowhere to put one of his arms.

is it gay to cuddle with your best male friend?

>>7134536
>not having short hair on your little spoon
>not wrapping your arm around from underneath

>>7134549
No, do it faggot

>>7134549
not if he has a feminine penis

>>7134549
No, it's the perfect expression of sincerity

>>7134554
>enjoying it when your arm falls asleep

>>7134209
Stuart Woods- Under the lake
John Fowles- The collector
Oscar Wilde- The portrait of Dorian Gray

>>7134382

kafka on the shore is another. also a quiet life by kenzaburo oe.

The Dharma Bums

>>7134209
>You have 10 seconds
What if I want to take my sweet and comfortable time to think about it?

>>7134209

Treasure Island

The Alchemist is pretty damn comfy

>>7135041
That's bait.

>>7135060
No.It's comfy.

>>7134209

any Jack London
The Hobbit
The Secret History
any Joyce

Invisible cities - Calvino

Mason & Dixon

Keats' Poetry

The Long Ships

Chekhov's short stories and novellas are pretty cozy

In the Heart of the Heart of the Country is perfect winter reading

inherent vice

Infinite Jest

Autumn will be here in a couple weeks. What are some good fall books I can read in a forest?

Dubliners, Molloy, Mrs Dalloway, Pale Fire, anything by Pratchett.

>>7134220
The beginning, maybe. The ending is depressing as shit my man.

>>7134549
B'awww

>>7135697
Eco tbh. The Name of the Rose got me in the autumn mood ;^)

tbh

>>7134511
Fuck brehs... There's a girl who hangs out in my dorm lounge with 30G's

>>7134526
Can confirm colorless tsukuru for cozy. It's a bit feelsy, something it's good to be just a little chilly while reading.

Skylark and Kornel Esti by Deszö Kosztolányi.

>>7134423
which book, he has several

>>7135857
skylark is kinda comfy in bits, but it's far too uncomfortably psychologically penetrating and depressing to be comfy for me.
kornel esti though, yes

>>7134209
Bleeding Edge

>>7135769
fug her tiddies

Comfiest book evz.

>you will never huddle around a fire with your comrades after having a double ration of food

>>7136516
its misleading, I thought it was going to be some depressing prisoner of war type story

>>7134209
The City of Dreaming Books
>>7134446
No one cares anon

>>7134209
Time Braid, without a doubt.

>>7136531
>>7136516
Really surprised me as well.

Steinbeck is pretty comfy lit.

Damn comfy autumn reading

>>7135697
I think more mother fuckers should read and support The Secret History. It's beautifully plotted, thrilling, and evocative of bygone (academic) years.

>>7134446
>I have no concept of intimacy
>humans are bags of flesh and they're too warm

Anything by Mathias Malzieu

>>7138257
oh god the memories

>>7135105
This guy gets it.

>>7138257
that owl looks more fulfilled with his life than i will ever be

>>7134209
Italio Calvino - Invisible Cities. Comfy as fuck.

In Search of Lost Time

Doesn't get more comfy than this book.

>>7138488

I just put this in storage because i didnt think i'd ever read it. Big Hamsun fan though, It's good, then?

>>7137366
The show is also entertaining.

>>7135030
Then you can just go get fucked, anon.

>>7134209
It may not be the single novel that you're after but by god, it doesn't get much more comfy than Wodehouse

Invisible Cities

Infinite Jest.

No, I'm not shitting you. I had such a great time reading that. Took me two months, but it grabbed me like nothing else.

Looking forward to a reread soon.

>>7137318
>>7136531
>>7136516
You think if you were to win the lottery, you would remain content, or rather keep that very same joy forever? In such conditions, one will try to survive and adapt to the subtle madness, the book does not try to shove it in your face, is direct but not begging for pity.

>>7138501
Oh yes, very good.

>>7139355

aight. I have the older translation. Do you know any significant difference between it and the penguin one? I usually hate the Penguin weegie translations

>>7139180
This.

Comfy as fuck.

"Desires are already memories."

Read Eragon in middle school while staying in vermont for a week.
>tfw never will read about a magical adventure then go hiking for hours with Dad as he talked about latin poetry

>>7134209
imho moby dick is quite comfy

>>7140107
Read it in the original language pleb.

>>7134209
Cosmicomics, Italo Calvino.
Shit was so cash.

>>7134209
The Road, in a weird way

>>7134500
Käpt'n Blaubär was pretty comfy too as a child tbh

>>7140750
Seconding the Road. Blood Meridian for that matter carries equally idyllic moments of camaraderie and pastoralism because of the gore it's surrounded by. Cowboys in grassy meadows eating beans? Cozy.

>>7138488
need to read

>>7134549
Yes, that is definitely a gay thing to do.

>>7137334
Gross. That book sucks dick.

Tristram Shandy

The Recognitions. But mostly because I associate it with 40s and 50s jazz music.

>>7140222
not him but should I read it in Swedish? do you figure the translation would be better than English? Cause I'm not gonna struggle through it in Norwegian

>>7138488
how does the story go ? I am beginning to consider buying it at the amazon

>>7134220
the waves is pretty uncomfy

The Restraint of Beasts.

>>7142252
Never read it, but i think I would go for the Swedish version.. it is a translation either way

>>7142655
what kinds of the story ?

>>7134446
I disagree- I believe cuddling with a loved one is one of the most pleasurable sensations known to mankind

>>7142986
I agree if it is limited to 30 minites period in my book .

>>7142986
my most pleasurable sensations is to spit in a woman with beautiful face during the activity . I feel they are harrased but can not do anything but to stand it because I am on her to pin her down .

Thomas Hardy's Wessex Tales

Siddhartha

The City of Dreaming Books
Rumo
So comfy i could die.

>>7143204
this

1984

>>7135709
>Eco tbh. The Name of the Rose got me in the autumn mood ;^)
nice, have had this book in my backlog forever now. Seems like it's time to dig in

>>7143614
So much this. I loved Moers when I was a kid.

>>7143614
>The City of Dreaming Books
I just bought it .

>>7145149
>>7143614
Would they hold up reading them now?

I remember A Wrinkle In Time being seriously comfy.

>>7134209

A lot of the James Bond novels, in my opinion, are filled with comfortable sections. For example, the post torture section of Casino Royale, and the train and pre-climax Jamaica parts. Any part with Felix Leiter is automatically comfy; I love reading about him and Bond buddying it up. The way Fleming describes Bond's meals and whatnot adds to the comfy atmosphere (which is probably intentional and is a means to highlight the contrast between the occasional horror of Bond's missions and the comfortable lifestyle he lives outside of them)

The Once and Future King
Treasure Island

I don't know what comfy feels like

Country of the Pointed Firs or The Egg and Other Stories.

Almost anything by Sherwood or Jewett is comfy as shit.

That "practice what you peach" stuff was comfy as fuck.
Hope he finishes it.

>>7142982
It's a story about two fencers who go from job to job, fucking up along the way.

>The Ice Palace
>The Road
>Clongowes in The Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man

>>7146451
Ah, I love a job-hopping story .Again I am going to order it at amazon

By the way , What is your occupation here ?
I am a nurse man .

Suttree, it was really sad and dense at the beginning but once you hit the same wavelength of the novel it's just perfectly comfy.

>comfy
last men you are, the lot of you

Anybody else do a lot of Lovecraft and Kafka in the fall?

For whatever reason I find those stories soothing during the season getting colder.

Its like watching someone play an RTS

> gathering resources from the ship at the start
> exploring new lands
> encountering dangerous beasts
> building comfy houses
> that bit where they make the storage cave

ultimate comfy

>>7146820
It is the Moby Dick of fencing. You won't be disappointed.

Stoner was really comfy for me.

>>7146948
>it's like video games

dropped

>>7134209
That doesn't look comfy... it looks bright as fuck, and there are no discernible shades.

>>7135097
I've seen 'The Secret History' come up a few times on here. Are you referring to the 6th century apocryphal history on Justinian and Theodora, or is there some other 'The Secret History'?

>>7135667
I wouldn't call anything by Gass comfy, least of all the title story of that collection.

the waves

Dandelion Wine

>>7147949
I have four signed first editions of that my grandpa gave to me a few years ago, is it worth anything to anyone?

>>7147979
no one cares if you grandpa has signed your books

>>7147994
ebin troll tbh

Lonesome Dove

Even the death scenes are comfy

>>7147979
