If you are interessted in a specific topic look up what you would have to read in courses/uni.
clean your room
safe your room
clean the dragon
slay your father
>read les miserables
>suddenly literally 50 pages of historical context and discussion of the battle of Waterloo with literally no link to the story
>the only link is the last 3 pages
Victor Hugo would have been considered a fucking pretentious hack by todays standards.
Also annoying when frenchies don't give actual names. Seems to be common with them. Like theres M- sur M-, and even in In Search Of Lost Time, Proust just truncates location names, often without ever giving their full name.
Walden is pretty good as long as you take it as an opinion and advice, and not fucking gospel.
actually apply that to everything
Finnegans Wake
No
The only reading you should be doing is the bio under piano videos
The Way of Men and Becoming a Barbarian
Jack Donovan is based as fuck
Be more specific on what you're looking for. Or just find a subject you're interested in and get a book on it for the level you're at. Or just read Nietzsche, the will to power, beyond good and evil, etc
What are you looking for in a book ?
"brain gains" is pretty vague, and nonsensical
Read Frankenstein so you can discuss 18th century European architecture and tell people you know why the movies always suck
way of men was a good read, and it's easy to get through/digest.
all quiet on the western front is a favorite of mine
anything by hemingway
lonesome dove
blood meridian
moby dick
Actual /fitlit/ here, you start with the greeks.
Are plays Veeky Forums?
Listen, I know you live in the northern american states... but just go to a library, or, hell, a bookshop. Pick up a book and start reading it.
If you're in a bookshop, just remember it doesn't matter how long you stand and read the book as long as you make a purchase at the end of the day.
>you start with the greeks
Lies, you start lifting the greeks, and you read something sticky.
...
>Blood Meridian
All cormac mccarthy. Though, maybe hold off on Blood Meridian for a while since it will ruin literature for you.
