You have a lot to learn about the literary world, my friend.

PKD in science fiction, in prose, tons.

Ha. You're a real funny guy.

Shit, I was about to make a new one myself.

Why am I enjoying the two Foundation sequels so much more than the original trilogy? Is it because it follows one specific story, and one cast of characters throughout all events?
I was surprised at how enthralled I became reading Foundation's Edge, and I'm still in the first bits of Foundation and Earth but greatly enjoy it. For some reason, I love the chemistry and interaction between Pelorat and Trevize.

>>What is the best Asian inspired fantasy?
I liked the Empire trilogy by Feist and Wurts.

Mostly limited to chicklit, since that favors massive, tacky hardcovers. Girls buy it because they want something to read, whereas we - and most other sensible readers - buy a book because we sought out that title alone.

It's the difference between buying Moby Dick because you want to have read Moby Dick, or buying Confessions of a Teenage Witch because you just want to read.

I've moved on to piracy

What a qt.

Do any of these booktube sluts own books printed before 2000?

I don't enjoy reading. I just do it to feel better than other people because my life is beyond pathetic and I need to feel superior in some way.

I got into reading through unauthorised biographies of musicians and singers.

I can never throw away a book even if I hated it or it's YA shit that was given to me. I have a shelf full of low-tier literature which causes me to wince whenever I walk past it.

I like reading but I'm often reluctant to read books that have more than 300-400 pages as I know it will eat up most of my time and by halfway I'm just looking at my shelf at what I want to read next and then what I want to read after that, then after that, etc.

I love Joseph Conrad but I will never read Nigger of the Narcissus anywhere other than my bedroom and even then I can't keep it on my shelf just in case if somebody thinks it's some Mein Kampf-tier /pol/ shit.

I'm unable to articulate or properly describe books I've read.

Da Vinci Code/Angels and Demons/Solomon Key

He didn't even try.

Harry Potter is the worst example you could give. The language in the first book is clearly directed at young children and as the other books get published you can easily see the evolution in her writing style

According to Joseph Campbell, any book.

>>7952513
god damn, what book is that? that is some awful writing to be completely honest familiar

Same as that OP, bottom resting on the pinky. Official case's are criminally expensive, almost expensive as the kindle itself. And for some reason all the bookstore chains removed amazon products

>>7952513
I hold it with my right hand or both hands. I have the official leather case with a little discount in black because I didn't want to skimp out on it. I saw people with cheaper cases have theirs falling apart.

Yes, obviously. From where do you think logic spawned from?

>>7966029
And how often do you see logic being used meaningfully in the world?

>>7966057
..what?

Sounds like you have Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder

I'm not so sure about the scansion; maybe it's just the use of a numeral? It's chill though, if a bit clichéd.

I broke my hollow world
And petulant tears dripped down its curved surface;
Tidal waves that didn’t distinguish between
Fake true blue waters
And verdant lands (and the vermillion deserts where plastic vegetation cannot grow).
It had fallen out of its orbit-stand in my bedroom
Solar system shattered, and it fell out of
23-degree-tilt-spinning-round-with-my-magnetic-shove skies
Of countless unstars not glittering like gravel.
And into my small hands. I extended it to my brother’s (he’d already got the whole world in his bigger, calloused hands).

He took the globe and spun it like a Globetrotter
Balanced it on his nose, barking like a seal
He threw it to me and I did the same; my sad hiccoughs turned to gleeful guffaws as we tossed Earth back and forth.

Hurricanes billowing across Beirut; Berlin; the Red Sea and the Dead Sea; Antarctica.
Pissed off pedestrians were smothered underthumb and flocks and herds and shoals of endangered animals got scuffed into extinction when I dropped it.
The Sun sets on our side of our Earth and it goes black but we go on.
Both sides of my own Earth go black
But it gets no rest until we tire of this game and open it up.
A tectonic bisection:
cutting Africa in two with sharp colonial boundaries
rendering a Mexican border wall obsolete
leaving tourists stranded on the wrong hemisphere (with impotent souvenirs).
We found we could hide sweets inside.
