This thread is for the discussion of literature and philosophy. If you want to talk about genre fiction, go to /sffg/. If you want to make low effort bait posts, there is the rest of the board for that.
To start some conversation, what books changed the way you think permanently and why did they change your thinking?

Sffg is for science fiction and fantasy.
Genre fiction is literature and thefore can be discussed here. Philosophy is not literature, it is the study of the fundamental nature of knowledge, reality, and existence, especially when considered as an academic discipline, it is not literature, same way study of mathematics, science, economics is not literature.

yes, so it's a shame all the philosophy threads on here devolve into something like
