Been a while since I saw a good literature thread.
I'm currently skimming Dracula. Its a bit too divided for me, as it's amazing at the beginning, with Johnathan exploring the castle and the "brides" and such, then it switches to Mina and that's when I lose interest. I read the part with the ship, but otherwise, I'm just skimming the parts Nosferatu focused on.
(I swear, I'm a diligent reader, I read Crime and Punishment for God's sake, but I just can't take a "postage book")
Any books you are reading, working on, or interested in?

I tried reading Neuromancer again but only got to about midway through because life intervened. Last thing I remember Riviera just did his creepy on-stage sex show with hologram Molly.

I'm not an avid reader but I read some of the golden sayings of epictetus recently and it is amusing.

A book full of letters, which is basically the book past Jonathan's diary. Just Mina and Lucy talking to one another.

>epictetus
It's philosophy. It's a bunch of passages about morality sort of like some of the psalms in the bible. Honestly, I read it because some of it is broking up intoshort, digestable bits. Would recommend

... Are you talking about some """"" quirky""""" teen vampire romance novel

I just read Life at the Bottom by Dalrymple - many essays from the 90s through the 2000s by a doctor, critiquing the welfare state, multiculturalism, the judicial system, crime, and elite academics' manipulations of mainstream culture. Every robot should read it - he spares no normie the truth about their personal responsibility behind the savage and repugnant state of their lives, and yet has a keen sympathy for people who've actually been harmed by forces outside of their control.
Got a book about the French revolution, but the writer seems like a normie, so I'm thinking about finding some fiction to read instead.
Also, pic related is cute.

no the one and only with one girl

why can't girls comprehend, or even appreciate, literature?
For them, it is a chore to open a fucking book. And the ones that sat that the "love to read", are obvious posers that only consume best sellers and literal shit works, like YA. The same goes for girls that """write"""; all their writing is basic, journal-esque, and without any intellectual substance or even a good, entertaining story. If it isn't a shitty sex/romance story, they over complicate things to sound knowledgeable.
