Never see Hemingway mentioned on here, glad to see him. I fucking ripped through A Farewell to Arms and For Whom the Bell Tolls, absolutely awesome reads and you can get through them in no time
I love reading. Usually novels but recently I got into history and now I am reading Epic history of Rome and Greece by guy named Robin Lane Fox and it's awesome. I can't recommend any life-changing, philosophical books but if somebody wants a good hard hitting, gritty prose I recommend Ellroy fully.

damn vsauce been getting big
I like to read Gary Snyder's Mountains And Rivers Without End on /out/ings. Sun Tzu, Confucius and Mencius are worth a read too. Somebody beat me to Marcus Aurelius and Hemingway.

I'd rather not read a trash version of DBz or Chaucer's kindergarten tier metaphorical tales thank you
