I liked never let me go a lot. I read the remains of the day and that was good too. Funny and sad.

He's not crying, he's cumming. And who says you have to read it in public?

>>8990608
Because when ever I read a book it eventually gets read in public on the bus or subway. Also that is the gayest cover I have ever seen.

>caring about what other people think about what you read.

nevermind that anybody who would recognize the book would probably respect you more for reading it, much better than michel "justify my incel lifestyle" houellebecq

Well I guess it reflects the story pretty well, then. If you can't handle a picture, I suppose you're not ready for a 700 page novel.
