Aye! Collection of some extremely creative short stories based on some scientific "facts". You could say it's science fiction but not in the matter of futuristic tales of imaginative worlds, but retelling of the earth and space history in a comic way.

I borrowed the first Mortal Instruments from the library in high school. I don't think I got even a third of the way through before I could take no more.

The Hunger Games books aren't bad for YA.

I've heard Maze Runner is good so I imagine it's at least decent.

GoT is longer than it has any right to be but the first three are worth a read if you're into fantasy

>Were you an avid YA reader in your day?
I stopped reading YA like 2years ago.

I didn't even see it as YA, I just read them because I enjoyed the stories(killing demons).... then I saw an appalling habit, were good books, with good plots, just threw everything out the window, character's personalities, world facts and limitations SET DOWN by the Authors themselves , all in favour for making some romance novel shit.

Percy Jackson, Mortal Instruments, Clockwork Series, Hush Hush, I am Number Six, etc, etc.

I've learnt to avoid books labeled as YA.
If I read the blurb and see shit like the protagonist(male /female), having to fight to save someone they just met, I drop the book .
If it's set in the "not so distant future ", dropped.
Some shit about teaming up with their worst enemy to save the world, dropped.
Mentions ANYWHERE in the blurb, school, high school or classmates, dropped.

I still read fantasy, just not obvious YA trite that have the above listed hallmarks.

Ok guys, this has always been a nice board. This has always been the place where we could discuss things seriously when it's called for, but have some intricate memeing going on for the lulz and the occasional feel posts where people share their tfwngf bs with like minded people or the perks of being a humanities student and aspiring writer or a sellout stemfag, all fine, all fine.
The memeing was always too post-modernist for outsiders to understand, everyone with its bit of truth, but with the average person failing to draw the line or to comprehend the layers of beauty and lulz in them.
Translations, start with the greeks, he rapes his sister Phoebe, dfw no gf, stirnerposting, all cool.

But you weren't satisfied? Were you? You had to try to go and create more funny memes, DFW with funny faces, more rare Stirners, banalize Stirner's views to the point that angry teenagers can relate all too well.
Now I know it's tempting to create a meme that is funny for the layman while keeping some finesse that can still be appreciated. And I know too well that the fame is also tempting cause you are all starving for audience pussy.
But I always thought this board was patrician enough to not give in to such commonplace aspirations, I guess I was wrong.
Thanks to your weakness we now have the dankest memes and are the cool kids in this website. And one plague at time is crawling in, as if dealing with /pol/'s stupidity wasn't already too bad.

First came /r9k/ trying to catch up with the may mays. But their usual lack of understanding is actually cute and they are somewhat contained when they are not at their home, so not actually a problem, but a warning, one that you all chose to ignore.

Then came /mu/ with a bunch of people who have never read a book but has a "I'm so patrician cause I listen to Neutral Milk Asylum" mindset and intends to learn how to read by picking Ulysses or Gravity Rainbow. Which starts to get annoying, cause instead of just picking the goddamn book, reading it and discovering how foolish they are, they have to argue all day in this board about how they surely can do that first. But you guys didn't stop anyway.

Now /soc/ cancer is here as well, congratulations, I hope you all die in hell. Thanks for the menes though, it was good while it lasted.

I'll just wait til /tv/ joins them and this board becomes /ya/ so I can leave for good while laughing at our own disgrace.

The title of classic is typically reserved for books that have stood the test of time. Given, the term can be used relative to the country but I would be hesitant to subscribe classic to Libra in any sense of the word. Hell, I would'nt even call it an American postmodern classic.

But yes, typically a classic would refer to pre WWI era literature that's well received. That's what I hold the definition to mean, anyway

First haul in like a year.

Went to the bookstore looking for The Tunnel. Sadly they didn't have it so I picked up a collection of Gass's essays instead, and grabbed a few random books while I was there.

Wanted to get The Recognitions too but they were asking almost $20 for a used paperback. Fuck that.

Ada was purchased online earlier this month. It will probably be my next read while I wait for The Tunnel.

Most of my Nabokov covers are ugly. The Lolita is the only one I like (dem legs). Either I have bad luck or Nabokov does, haven't seen many good covers of his books in general.

Never read Morrison. Figured I'd give her a shot and see if she's Nobel worthy or worthy of the scorn /lit/ heaps on her. Either way should be a quick read, at least.
