If I strive to just find the deepest, most thought provoking

>what would that extraordinarily intelligent book be?
I am me, you are you, how am I meant to know?

Start with the bibliography of John Green, and go from there.

I like steve way more than linda. so sick of running into fucking cunts like that, concerned with being 'liked' by all the other vapid cunts concerned with being 'liked' at the office. if i was picking friends i'd rather have one steve than thirty lindas. steve says and thinks interesting things, linda takes instagram selfies with friends for literally an hour before everyone heads to the club. perhaps linda goes to europe but it is a hollow experience anyways and she should kill herself.

I may prefer Steve as well but I think he is being unessasarily negative about the week. Yes it is somewhat made up but I don't think people are a slave to it rather it is a construct that can be useful for organizing our time. I do think it is important that we recognize that it is a made up tool.

Schopenhauer's 'On Women'

I just don't like how Linda goes into that conversation so jovially and comea out with such a nasty remark at the end.

If you don't like Steve Linda don't talk to him about your excitement about Friday.

Definitely not Infinite Jest lol

You won't find the way to happiness by reading fiction, happiness is too subjective, people have different conceptions of it because different things work for them. Fiction isn't meant to be an all-in-one enlightenment package, it's meant to make you ask questions, consider certain lines of thought, and learn certain things about the world

I have to get up at 5 am for a 3 hr math class. Not a fan of Friday.

You are why everyone hates autists.

Wait, no, somebody actually intelligent wouldn't have to make this thread, fuck off OP, you retard

maybe The Magic Mountain by Thomas Mann or The Magus by John Fowles

that being said, I don't think a book needs to be extraordinarily intelligent to be thought provoking and I think a book that affects one person deeply may not have the same effect on another

you sound like you want to carry around a large book both as a symbol of your perceived weight of the contents therein and to show off how intelligent your choice of reading is
