22. Only got seriously into literature a year and a half ago. Before that it was just the occasional entry-level or sci-fi or King book.
And God I can't wait to reread Ulysses again. It's so damn good, man.

Asher Walker
Based on Art of Love alone, I'd recommend Reasons of Love by Harry Frankfurt. Instead of being a sort of "self-help" kind of book it goes more in depth of what it means to 'love' and the difference between it, desire, want, etc. It's a scholarly book more than anything.

Adding watership down to my list. I wonder how I never heard of this.
Camden Rivera
I was actually considering picking up Jerusalem next. Is it actually good? The random pages I've read seemed pretty Damn good desu
Oliver Roberts
I'm actually only about halfway through at the moment but so far it's been decent. It's clearly written and does a good job of linking modern psychology, Jungian psychoanalysis, literatue, and philosophy without coming across as pop-psy garbage. I'm at an odd transitional point in my life and this is helping me make sense of it. Would recommend for anybody who feels lost and unfulfilled by the dominant culture. I also just downloaded the free PDF version off his website.

How did you like In Patagonia? I was quite taken by the first half of the Songlines (his Australian semi-fictional travelogue). The second half is every idea about "walking" he can come up with while on the toilet.
