Newfag, where to start?

Avoiding the memes is a meme. You should read the memes but also heed my prior advice. Get what I'm getting at?

The consensus is that you should start with Hegel's "Phenomenology of Spirit" and finish with Godel's "On Formally Undecidable Propositions of Principia Mathematica"

Read what seems interesting to you. Fuck /lit/.

This. Read what appeals to you. For your level, there are no "must-reads".

Same boat as OP and im sure he'll know these feels
What if I literally have no idea what appeals to me, atleast from looking at all these books posted on /lit/.

Read what you like who gives a shit. Find a book you like and look at others in the same genre/style. Once you're getting a feel for prose and the language you can move into deeper stuff. Just remember you're doing this for fun at the end of the day, don't feel bad for not enjoying something even if /lit/ tells you to

lol your a fag that shit is gay

read the meme trio first. everything after that will be a cake walk

Start whit fitzy.

The /lit/ chart isn't for casual readers. If you're a casual, try exploring some other books. If you enjoy HP and LotR, try something like Ready Player One.

If you want more of a challenge and to stretch the brain a bit, go for some of those /lit/ authors, but choose their shorter works. McCarthy's The Road is a good one. Great imagery, dark, but easy enough to read.

I would personally suggest anything by Stephen Hunter, like Point of Impact or Pale Horse Coming. Not too pretentious, but full of action, good writing, and detailed understanding of his topics.

Ultimately, just pick up a few different books from Amazon or a library and try them out. Find what you like.

Start with the Greeks.

The Hobbit is a good place to start, if youre looking for a recommendation. Otherwise, all you can do is pick a title that seems to appeal to you, as only you can decide if you like a book, in the end.
