I thought Zettel's Traum was the ultimate boss

Seconded.

There is literally a thread up right now about medieval romances, which you COULD go post in, but of course you've never read a chivalric romance because you're TOO MUCH OF A PLEB.

Skim through the usual and you'll find something of worth every now and then. It's not like you need to find twenty new writers every day.

This. You have to weed through the shitposting and sameposting to find those quality discussion threads.

The board hasn't changed much over the years. There's a lot of shit, but there's still some great threads where I can find a new author to binge-read.

For what it's worth, I'm currently reading Library of America's Raymond Carver short story collection. Great stuff. Dark, world-weary Americana. Carver was a brilliant short story writer. Hell of a drunk, too.

/lit/ isn't for discussing books it's for posing as a "literary" person who only reads the most sophisticated books. If you want people who talk about books go to /sffg/, but all they read is trashy genre fiction that even they despise.
