I'm at the bookstore, what should I get

You know it's coming

Best find the beta shelf

That's no bookstore... thats my house! OP don't you dare harm my wife or her son!!!!

Serious replies plz

Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse 5 may be the only decent book there.

Otherwise Each Day with Jesus.

pick up that amy tan book son

I didn't just mean from the shelf. I meant from the store

Her son? Not your son?
a distant shriek is heard: "cuck"

>shit-posting to Veeky Forums even when you're not in your house

This is some advanced shit-posting right here. Somebody give this man an Autie.

What HPB is that?

Kansas City

I don't know what books they have. Take a picture of every shelf and post it.

Okay one second

ah, kansas city, my hometown. was so disappointed about the game last night. stay safe in the ice, user.

No ice just rain

...

Succubus dreams. It's very Kafkaesque

I'd those are my only options I'd pick slaughter house v and American sniper

Damn, how many different editions of pride and prejudice do they need?

a book

Somebody had to do it.

?

...

Yes

Nothing good here

If I had to pick just one from here I'd go with empire of the sun

I'd also go with Empire of the Sun.

Ambrose collected writings would be fine, too.

...

Ooh the Sheltering Sky on the bottom is good

Which two of these should I get: The silmarillion, TS Elliot poems and plays, or Franz Kafka complete stories

Kurt Vonnegut
None, although some are fond of Allende I personally hate her, she's YA tier but with hispanic themes.
Jane Austen is never bad, I liked the book of ilussions and I hear the new york trilogy ain't bad.
I spot a NYRB which I haven't read and I like that publisher/editorial, might be good. Plus they don't print that many so it's always a good catch usually.
I hear Lucia Berlin is alright but I've never read her.
Borges is top notch, get Ficciones at least.
The savage detectives is a recommended read around here and I agree, it's pretty good.
I don't like bukowski but some enjoy him, he's pretty edgy.
Some people recommend naked lunch (I've never read it).
I see the stranger by camus and some book by italo calvino, both are good authors.
I liked a book by coetzee but I don't see it there, boyhood is said to be nice but I don't know.
Also, Silmarillion only if you enjoyed LOTR, otherwise it might feel like a chore. TSE is fantastic, if only to have the waste land at home for reference at some point in your life, it's online though.
Kafka is superb but I don't know about translations and what edition it is. That said, he's a must read.
