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!

        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!
