This is going to seem like shitposting but where should I start with Tao Lin? His books are like 10 dollars on Amazon so I'm going to get Tai Pei and one other. Which should it be?

Richard Yates. Definitely not Shoplifting, I don't like that one

Richard Yates or eeee ee e e e. He has a few distinct styles, I believe he's defined them on his blog.I think Yates is similar to Tai Pei in style, but I don't like ee ee or shoplifting much either.

You should also read his "shoplifting from nyu" gawker article and his essay on koko the talking gorilla on thoughtcatalog. just google them. They're funny, like shoplifting, but not so boring and also free.

I remember the first time i saw this pic I didn't know who Tao was so I thought the passage on the right was from some book about the dangers of pedophiles on the internet.
