The Culture series is fucking amazing and there's no ongoing story arc so you could start anywhere really but they're quite hard to get your head around.

The first three are all crackers.

Player of Games

Love the Stand, Shantaram got on me tits.

"I'm reading Stephen King's Revival right now, 205 pages in and really enjoying it."

nice. stephen king gets a bad rap from a lot of people just because he's so successful. but ive never read a king book i havent enjoyed yet and both the stand and the dark tower saga are some of the best post apocalyptic shit ever.

@parks my favorite book is house of leaves how 'book pleb' am i, tear me up

my second fav is the tibetan book of the dead tho do i get points for edge

i'm not here to tear anyone up i just think it would be funny to see, based on similar experiences from other communities

i dont claim to be super well versed in novels at all but i cant think of a single high school or college book ive ever been forced to read being anything more than very mildly enjoyable in a sort of well its better than reading a textbook kind of way.

and ive never read fight club and dont care to.

"see: any sputnik film list ever"

i don't think that's comparable honestly

damn you convinced me

yeah they are pretty painfully predictable

right, good things can never be popular, how could i forget

@Potsy yeah I think King gets more hate than he deserves, enjoyed every novel of his I've read and his short story collections are amazing- especially Full Dark No Stars.

Isn't that the antithesis of the book list point you made

"right, good things can never be popular, how could i forget"

lol chill dude, no one said that. your man six was literally saying the exact same shit about movies that you were about books.

anatelier beat me to it but yeah seriously

"@Potsy yeah I think King gets more hate than he deserves, enjoyed every novel of his I've read and his short story collections are amazing- especially Full Dark No Stars."

i listen to audiobooks at work a lot and plan to eventually get through his entire collection, including his short stories.

"Isn't that the antithesis of the book list point you made"

not really, those are just shoved down people's throats and in some cases might be their only exposure to literature

and ayn rand is well... this site is full of edgelords

atlas shrugged is possibly the worst book ever so yeah

"not really, those are just shoved down people's throats and in some cases might be their only exposure to literature"

yeah u could say the same thing about some movies too tbh

i'm curious where you live that certain films are systematically forced upon you in education, that sounds like an interesting experience
