Are people older than 17 allowed?

I constantly change my favourite book as I continue reading.
My last three favourites were:
The Foundation part one
Stoner
V.

I actually find his writing to be incredibly charming, the stories are very well written and have a fun and oddly whimsical nature to them.

Crossboarding brainlet here.

If could recommend similar ones (as in no frills and straight to the point writing style, historically minded without being arid, etc.) that would be sweet, it's literally the only novel that kept me hooked from the beginning to the end.

Daily reminder that Catcher is a fantastic book and anyone who dismisses it as "edgy angsty teen shit" is objectively wrong

>audio book narrated by Michael Rowley
>sounds like an old time transvestite
>my face when Holden being narrated as an old time transvestite

Listen to whoever narrates this one though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IUzOnHaTEE&t=8187s It changes the entire experience. There's even a comment that simply says, "this book sucks" and no one disagrees. It's the narration that makes it.

Just remember to let me put the "devil" back in "hell" every now and then.

it is the quintessential teenage angst novel and it's considered a literary classic for a reason.

Reading this right now. SotT was sort of underwhelming as I assumed the stories were more self contained. CotC is shaping up to be pretty excellent though.

>>9712286
the great gatsby

There's a hell of a lot in the first book that only makes sense upon reading the rest of it. On my initial read through I preferred the later volumes, but after having read the whole thing multiple times it's the first book I like most.

BTW - keep one eye on the names of the characters. Are they named after Catholic saints, or are they Latin, or are they Greek. Because that classification has plenty of meaning to the story.

The Child Thief for me.

I haven't had many books resonant with me on such a strange level.
