Alright /lit/, recommend me some books to buy from amazon and read (yes i'm going to buy them because i'm one of those people who likes having a hard copy in my hand)

Recently I loved Lucky Jim byKingsley Amis and Money by Martin Amis, I hated the Stranger by Camus, I liked Portnoy's Complain by Philip Roth, and after Reading Orwell's collection of essays I LOVE his writing.

Based on this, what book(s) should I buy next?

Read Candide by Voltaire. I'm not from /lit/ though so I obviously know nothing about good books.

>> No.2141428

what does mouth-breather mean?

i think camus is a great writer i just didn't like the book, it's unsettingly and the protagonist is infuriating.

can i just say what i like and /lit/ tell me other books that i would like based on that?

No, because /lit/ is a bunch of pretentious twats who just want to impress you with how well-read they are.
