Huh? What happened here?

Why did 50 people decide to add Anna Kavan's 'Ice' to their to-read list on Goodreads this past Friday? I know there's that anime that talks about it, but that came out months ago... What's with the sudden interest in Ice?
>>
>>9487169
There was an extremely popular reddit post from a website "50 cult classic novels" or something like that. This book was listed on there.

Interesting. Thanks for telling.

>>9487435
I know this is stupid to think, but me too :(
>>
>>9487504
Oh, it is literally #49 and no one in the thread said anything about it. I take it no one will give a damn anyway.

Kavan's dead, but she's mine.
>>
>>9487169
i was memed, but why do you care exactly?
>>
>>9487523
What's the name of this anime again?
>>
>>9487523
Because it is a little known book and that is quite the spike in attention? The graph illustrated this pretty clearly, surprised you needed to ask desu.
>>
>>9487526
Bernard-jou Iwaku
>>9487529
yeah, but why exactly are you monitoring something like that? i do not comprehend
>>
>>9487526
Bernard-Jou Iwaku (episode 9 specifically).
>>
>>9487535
I wasn't monitoring it. I was looking at the page on Goodreads and saw 'stats' for the first time. Just a coincidence I found anything noteworthy at all.

What the hell is Ice?

Who. Gives. A. Shit.

Not. /lit.

You are being idiotic. just becaus reddit likes something doesnt mean it is ruined. Reddit likes books so I guess books are ruined now???
>>
>>9489581
Not about reddit really, they were just the source of this spike. Ice is just on no one's radar in general.
>>
>>9489616
It got published by NYR books which has a cult following. it is definetly on people's "radar"
>>
>>9489625
I wasn't very serious about it in the first place, but your inability to see or your lack of familiarity with this kind of "anxiety" is a fault with you. The book isn't tainted if more people read it, and tons already have.
>>
>>9489625
Also, this isn't the "Ice Trilogy" I think you're referring to. This book's getting its first Penguin publishing in its 25 years and it is very much under the radar. Don't post in threads when you just want to start shit you're not prepared to handle.
>>
Well, I had never even heard about it, but thanks to you I'll be reading it too and probably recommend to a normieish friend who likes this kind of stuff, so, now you're part of the cancer.
>>
>>9489673
I hope that you and your friends enjoy it. It's a great book and Kavan was a really unique voice who doesn't have the attention she deserves.

November this year, and I guess it is the 50th anniversary which makes more sense.

>>9489786
sweet, pre ordering
>>
>>9490188
Maybe I am missing this info, but it doesn't seem to be anything other than the book right? Just curious if there is any supp material to make it worth a second purchase or not. Doesn't seem like it.
>>
>>9489581

>Reddit likes books so I guess books are ruined now???

That's a possibility I'm willing to consider.
>>
>>9490281
lol
