i just got cloud atlas bc i've been meaning to read it for ages, has anyone here read it?

I read it a few years ago. Honestly I don't think it's as good as his other books (though I'm definitely in the minority with that opinion), but it's still worth reading because he's such a talented writer.

i am tempted to read this

It's terrible don't bother, reads like a fan fic, has all the bad fan fic tropes. You'll be heavily disappointed in the end just like with ur sex life lol

Been trying to finish "A Storm of Swords" for a while now (3rd book in A Song of Ice and Fire, the books that Game of Thrones is based off). I read a few chapters then get busy so it's frustrating.

Also started reading "The Road to Serfdom" by Economist F.A. Hayek, if you know anything about Economics it's basically a counter argument to Keynesian economics, which is the most accepted form of Economics. Basically he's against government intervention in the free market because he came from communism/totalitarianism, and saw how much it damaged his country.

I didnt spoil Sh*t. any person with the slightest bit of reading comprehension will see spoiler coming 50 pages in. there are like a 100 death flags triggered before it happens too

dont read the name of the wind.

Its about a gary stu who is a genius and is good at EVERYTHING. He has a generic tragic back story where both his parents die, he goes to a magic school, and he gets cucked by the brunette chick he likes

The end.

that about sums it up all right. it's also massively pretentious tho

you know what is actually a hard thing to find is a book where you can just forget it has an author. unless it is gravity's rainbow, seriously pynchon is like some unseen god in its making, and with language like most marvellous physics

I just read the Dark Forest by Cixin Liu, the sequel to the three body problem, and it was pretty amazing. I went and bought the third book in the Sc-Fi trilogy today so I'm pretty excited.

kingkiller chronicles is good tbh. i read each book over like a day, there's just something zero effort about them, honestly if there was books i'd learn to write from it's them. i'd say the dude is a master at what's marketable, the sort of psychology of what makes an immersive story

but then the author is cringe to his core, it's a painful thing to have suspension of disbelief broken to just cringe at the fcking author lol

i'm reading gravity's rainbow with like the past 8 months, and it's the best thing ever

tell us more about gravity's rainbow sirius

it's just this book written by a fellow a million times smarter than me error. i'm honestly actually making a very poor hand at it lol... but if you're looking for a book that's just going to have u in awe of it, as if u were looking out over some beautiful mountainous scenery, gravity's rainbow is it. it is just like a glimpse of genius tbh
