You sound like a little bitch, so maybe a bitch book by Jodi Picoult. Try 'The Pact', it's about two kids who grow up best friends and eventually date, then decide to make a suicide pact. It's a bitch book, so it'll suit a little bitch like you.

I bet you liked to be dominated by your ex-girlfriend.

If you haven't already figured it out, everyone on this board is extremely pretentious. Myself included.

Because "i dont like reading" is very inappropriate around fellows who spend a huge percentage of their lives reading.

Also, the fact that you're asking for book recommendations in that same ironic light is infuriating.

Find a good version of The Odyssey, then come back and tell these guys to stick it because your experience of the text was more authentic than any written version could possibly be.

Somebody will probably argue that encountering the text in its original language is more important than embracing its tradition of narration, but at least the resulting discussion will be more substantial than what you're inciting with this thread.

Now that i've had my fun abusing you i'll offer some advice.

Go pursue your interests. Stay off the internet/computer.

If the internet is your interest, perhaps your girlfriend was right.

Bloody hell, are you seriously that retarded? I bet you're a damn yankee.
Listening to a book is not the same as reading it, you can't brag about all your new knowledge because you bloody LISTENED to it.

sounds strange but I got over my ex of several years via Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra. Too busy having my mind blown to think about anything else.

get laid by other hot women, get another GF or 2 it is the only antidote to a broken heart, because its you genes + millions of years of evolution telling you fail and they can not into continue,

when you get a another viable gene carrier, you genes will congratulate you and make you feel good all the fucking time

reading a book will not do it,

because u can not fuck book and pass on genes

What the fuck is with the hostility towards audiobooks all of a sudden? I swear to god last week this board considered it the "original medium" of story telling. Some people have shit going on in their lives where audiobooks are a viable solution. It doesn't necessarily mean he's never gonna read, but if that's what he prefers at this time then he has every right to do so absent of judgment from you pretentious cunts. Reading is reading. It's about as easy as listening to someone tell you a story. So assuming he's retarded seems to assert that you may be compensating for your lackluster comprehension skills.
Now that I'm done ranting about the hypocrisy and pretentiousness of these c/lit/s I think you should take a listen to this version of The Great Gatsby. Its on Youtube so you don't even have to download anything.
