There aren't really any because zoomers hate reading.

Pic related is the closet thing there is.

Comic books, probably.

Shut up Boomer. Zoomers would just look the tips up online or watch gameplay.

Neuromancer, probably. Not in that zoomers would read it, but in that it's about zoomers and the zoomer ethos.

Shitty dystopian YA fiction such as Divergent and Hunger Games.

Rimbaud isn't zoomercore unless you only count gay teenage boys. Even then, most probably won't have heard of him.

The real answer is Ready Player One.

I've tried to read it twice, but I can't get through the fucking thing. I love the setting, but the writing is so fucking impersonal and boring.

gen zoom is anti-pc/sjw. plus, they don't care about humanities at all. but, if a youtuber self published and promoted some kind of jokebook/artbook, based around their channel, (similar to what million dollar extreme did,) now that would qualify.

Stop trying to force identity onto the abstract. People born during the time span might have some things in common but that is no reason to gawk at and generalize them. How much do you like being called a Millenial who has no attention span because they were raised on the internet?

>The internet lowers your attention span
I was raised on the internet as a zoomer and I still read everyday. Even if you spend all day on the internet you can still find time to read or even raise your attention span by reading.
