08.31.14 | "100 years of solitude" [2] Latin american literature is so underappreciated
and well, everyone has read it, but as always: 1984, best book
Oh, and Lord of the Flies too, another classic |

08.31.14 | The Road [642313246354] holy shit it is terrifying and epic |
Rowan5215
08.31.14 | The Road is beautifully desolate and heart-breaking yet inspiring
House of Leaves is another fantastic rec that book is like a labyrinth in itself and you will get lost in it
fuck Lord of the Flies though |

Flowers for Algernon - Daniel Keyes
The Power of One - Bryce Courtney

08.31.14 | You should check out The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath. I second American Psycho. Also, if you're into non-fiction you should give The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson. |
KrazyKris
08.31.14 | Tokyo Year Zero - David Peace
The Long Walk - Stephen King
Brave New World - Aldous Huxley
The Diary Of A Young Girl - Anne Frank (I don't value it too much, but might be what you're looking for)
also second Kafka's Metamorphosis and Lord Of The Flies, both worth their time |
avonbarksdale221
08.31.14 | @MSLG: Malcolm X was an advocate for civil revolution by whatever means necessary. Facing such bigoted brutality and baseless hatred, sometimes the only option is to endorse action, rather than add to an endless cycle of empty words and token political gains. |
Archelirion
08.31.14 | Thirding Kafka's Metamorphosis, and I recommend anything by Irvine Welsh.
The Bell Jar is unbelievably depressing. Great though. |

Astral Abortis
05.10.17 | A lot of people rec'ing the Road, personally I think it's one of McCarthy's weaker books. I highly recommend No Country for Old Men and Blood Meridian, or any of his works really.
Some of my personal favourites:
John Darnielle - Wolf In White Van
Richard Adams - Watership Down
Stephen King - The Shining
John le Carré - The Spy Who Came In From the Cold
Charles Bukowski - Ham On Rye
Gene Wolfe - Shadow and Claw
Nick Cave - And the Ass Saw the Angel
Kurt Vonnegut - Cat's Cradle |
