There’s a thread about how people find new books, and one of my favorite ways to find things to read was browsing comments from the weekly ‘What are you reading’ threads in r/truelit and r/books. So what is Lemmy reading?
I’m finishing The Passenger, and about to jump into John Williams’ Stoner. Excited to see what is next!
If you haven’t read The Anthropocene Reviewed by John Green, you gotta.
Tell me more! Why?
Well, I’m something of a doomer, and it made me feel more hopeful, somehow? Uplifted? Plus, he’s an amazing writer with the power to make you give a shit about the smallest things. It was a lovely experience.
Hold placed! The last John Green book I read was Looking for Alaska, 8 years ago. I have vague, pleasant memories of reading it. (I think it was recommended by a crush.) Looking forward to reading your rec!
