>Friend asks for a book suggestion What do you tell

>>8745631
Depends on who he is and what he wants to read. Some books are universal though. Tell him to read The Old Man and the Sea.

>>8745631
Infinite Jest so I have someone that isn't an anon on /lit/ to talk about it with

>Implying it's a "he"
The spooks are strong with you

>>8745631
Depends on what they've read and if they are looking for a particular genre.

Siddhartha or Cannery Row. Both are classics but also easy, accessible reads that won't turn off the average pleb.

>>8745631
catch 22 or herman hesse

>>8745631
My diary, desu.

>>8745724
I usually recommend Cannery Row or Slaughterhouse-Five to nonreader friends who ask me for a good book to read. Both go over pretty well most of the time.

Good call on Siddhartha too.

Trump's son and John Lennon in that photo?

Anything writen by our god, John Green.

Did "you" just assume it(?)'s position regarding the existence of other intelligent beings?

>>8745702
Until English comes up with a gender-indifferent set of pronouns I will default to he, since I am a he.

>>8747268
They don't have gender neutral pronouns? They have such a stupid language. They should be shot for their lack of gender neutral pronouns.

>>8747313
Gender neutral pronouns that aren't retarded. They is generally plural. I guess I could start using xe, xer, xim, ect. but I'd probably be laughed out of this board.

>>8745642
Do you think you could get someone to read through a book that long?

lmaoi why these /lit/ faggots recommend the same things over and over again? Talk about echo chambers. GET FUCKED

>>8745702
you tried too hard

>>8745631
any normie book like Murakami

Something pretentious, then make a comment afterwards saying "heh, you probably wouldn't like it" then offer an alternative.
