What to read? Anonymous 2017-02-26 02:59:01 Post No. 9158452 [Report]

I'm not a regular poster on this board and I'm also not a big reader but I've recently started getting more into reading books. I myself am a very indecisive person and I find it hard to start doing new things without a little helpful push and where else to ask for help but a community about reading? So here I am to ask the denizens of /lit/ what books are absolutely essential to read things that will help me grow as a reader and as a person? I apologize if this is poorly written, vague, etc.

No joke these are pretty much all good reads.

To grow as a reader you should read:
1984
The Stranger
Heart of Darkness
Notes From The Underground
Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man
One Hundred Years of Solitude
Infinite Jest

relatively entry-level but still fun and insightful

I feel so bad for people who couldn't put Infinite Jest's pieces together.
