Anyone here ever work through Euclid just for the hell of it? I don't mean read, I mean actually do the work on paper with a compass and a ruler.

Apparently his other books are even better

>Lovecraft and Greene married on March 3, 1924, and relocated to her Brooklyn apartment at 793 Flatbush Avenue;[19] she thought he needed to get out of Providence in order to flourish and was willing to support him financially.[20] Greene, who had been married before, later said Lovecraft had performed satisfactorily as a lover, though she had to take the initiative in all aspects of the relationship.[20] She attributed Lovecraft's passive nature to a stultifying upbringing by his mother.[20] Lovecraft's weight increased to 90 kg (200 lb) on his wife's home cooking

Do you know any fantasy novels with a female protagonist? Preferably one that fights with a real weapon like a sword and not magic or something. Unless she uses magic to enhance her swordplay because that would be pretty cool.

I turned 18 last Tuesday. My life has been pretty pitiful up to that point, the life of a bored, introverted, self doubting individual. I've always loved to read, and I've been reading for as long as I can remember. It's unfortunate that I never really had a social life or that I couldn't get new books for months. So I had to contend with rereading Sherlock Holmes, harry potter and War and peace for years. I have access to the internet now, so I can read much more. Consider me literature beginner.

I plan to read a lot in 2017. What books do you think are helpful to cultivate the skill of reading, that'll help me with masterpieces that are difficult for people like me?

I come from the land of the muslim curry niggers. Urdu is my native tongue, although my proficiency in it is worse than my proficiency in english. I hardly expect any advice from lit on urdu literature, but you never know.

Please help a beginner as much as possible. Thank you.

Are there any books about bank heists or criminals of that nature? Not serial killers or just murderers but smarter crimes done by smart men that were executed well.

All I get when I search is true crime stuff about serial killers.

Joe Shmoe, huge lifetime Colt's fan, is invited to the Colt’s football locker room/meeting room as part of a sweepstakes or something gay like that, and in the middle of a big game where the score is tied or the Colts are slightly losing he’s taken aside and the coach tells him that usually around this time the quarterback, Chad Bronco, usually gets his dick sucked which helps him perform better in game, but his wife is sick and all the cheerleaders are on strike or something and the coach says, “look Shmoe, if you want your team to win, you’re just going to have to go in and suck his cock, because Chad with his dick sucked can definitely pull this game through for us and we’d have a big chance to get to the playoffs. So are you a true fan? Are you grey and blue all the way through?” Shmoe carefully considers then a few moments later he gets all dressed up in sissy clothes and Chad, this big black dude just comes into the room and whips his knob out and Shmoe just gags on it, loves it so much, loves that he can help the team out, and Chad asks him if its OK if he fucks him in the ass, because that would help him perform a little better, which could definitely turn the tide in this game. Shmoe agrees and Chad starts fucking him in the ass, literally has him impaled on his huge cock and all the other football dudes come in and start fucking Shmoe's mouth and shit, and Shmoe is thrilled that he can help. A few minutes later Shmoe covered in cum walks out of the locker room to the stadium in his sissy clothes to see the Colts score and win the game and he’s yelling and cheering and so happy he could help, happy he could help the Colts win the Big Game to get to the Super Bowl.

The announcer even puts Shmoe on the Jumbotron and everyone thanks him, all the little kids come out and dads tell their sons “Shmoe is a real man” and shit like that, and everyone loves Shmoe so much all the fans get together and hug him, and Chad cum is everywhere but no one feels it amidst the tears and the sweat of a game hard won.

I'm looking for a comfy, dark, psychological medieval novel that takes place during winter.

Nothing too abstract or fictional, but I don't mind the occasional dragon.

Any recommendations?
