I'm reading an intro to Hegel while procrastinating my thesis on kant's philosophy of nature.
In my (early) undergrad years I used to have a bad opinion of Hegel, but I can sort of see from where he is coming from.

21, reading don quixote

Lots of Nabokov right now. Going to tackle the last book in the meme trilogy (Infinite Jest) over the summer. Got lots of good shit lined up for this summer. Almost all of Virginia Woolf's books and essays. Finnegans Wake. Watership Down. The lesser known novels of Dostoevski. Underwold by Don Delillo. Can't wait for summer.

Currently:
- Divided brains: the biology and behaviour of brain asymmetries
- Why zebras don't get ulcers: and updated guide to stress, stress-related diseases, and coping
Reading is most of my spare time, can also be papers, essays and articles instead of books

Reads quickly doesn't it? Have you gotten to the Helmet of Malambrino part yet? That's my favorite.

I also like the cuckold story in the book. The dude was literally asking to be cucked, and gets mad when he does. Like he literally asks his best friend to try to cuck him to test the loyalty of his wife.

Good luck with Joyce. I recommend Joyce Book of the Dark before attempting Finnegans.

I've read all his books except for Finnegans Wake. And of course you're never going to actually fully understand any book on a first read. My favorite part of Ulysses was when Poldy gets teased by the girl on the beach and he discreetly masturbates in his pants.

I don't have the attention span to read books anymore so I read 2 pages everytime I take a shit. Finished 2 books like this so far. Currently reading pic related. It's more like a detective story which I like.
