I've come to the conclusion that /lit/ hates books.

You are the book version of /v/, /lit/.

>> No.1075914

tbh books suck big time

Kindle ftw!

>> No.1075925

At least /lit/ can actually discuss books instead of being nothing but sadfrog threads like /v/.

>> No.1075941

How did you come to that conclusion?

Even if /lit/ did hate books, it would take quite some time before we could reach /v/ status. /v/ is essentially /b/ + /r9k/. At least the threads that are posted here are related to literature.

/lit/ used to be good, for the first six months

inb4 /lit/ was never good

More like 3 months.

/lit/ was complete shit for two weeks, then it was ok for about two weeks. After that it's been complete shit

Well, this thread certainly isn't doing anything to make it better. Why don't you start a book-related discussion rather than making more off-topic nonsense?

>implying /lit/ likes to discuss books

Seriously, I've tried. It just doesn't happen. There's not even a decent, mythical "night time /lit/" where things improve.

When /lit/ first started the more intelligent people at 4chan came here adn it was pretty good. Well what you realize after a while is it's the same fucking discussions over and over. Tack on a hefty dose of Rand/King/Lovecraft trolling and what you've got is 3 16 year old kids talking in between 2 hour masturbation sessions.

Are you saying that this board is a cesspool of retarded idiosyncrasies just like all the other boards but with a mild literature flavor? That there is no content because in order to discuss literature you have to read books and people on here don't even qualify as pseudo intellectuals?
This board is obviously too deep for you.

Yup, it pretty much is these days. At least the ZWG crap has died down though.

>> No.1076044

But what about that Count of Monte Cristo thread we had a while back where almost everyone in the thread was gushing over it and we were debating over making it the official book of /lit/?

The fuck you say, /phil/ is great!

Issue 8 is coming, but then I hear they're going to take a break for a few months.
