I think I am far from alone in identifying far more with Levin's story than Anna's, though the latter benefited from discussion with a friend about societal perceptions of gender in Russia at the time. It reads alright as a feminist work, but I still find it hard to identify with Anna.

But heck yes I'm down for a book club, I could use a good heavy literature/reading discussion to get the brain juices moving away from AutoCAD
I just read The Old Man and the Wasteland, I highly recommend it if you want a post-apocalyptic fix (set 40 years after nuclear war).
Right now I am reading The Stand. Oh god. So good.
I just want to read EVERYTHING but I'm too poor for that.

Awww Yeah.
god damn the man is acerbic
Also reading this and it's ok. I feel that there's a lot of bias that the author is showing towards particular subjects, but oh well.
short form: i kinda feel bad for john romero!
other than that i've been rereading solaris in preparation for an essay about hard/philosophical sci fi
and playing mass effect
the last non-comic book I read was on the holocaust
It was grim as fuck
Useful for my essay though
excellent
man. i was gonna write about stanislaw lem but it seems like isaac asimov is just comin' up from the rear, considering nemesis and foundation an' i robot and such
Yes this is me too. I can spend hours on Amazon browsing books and getting samples sent to my Kindle. I have so many samples. I get them faster than I can read them. I don't even remember why I chose half of them.

This is the coolest shit ever. But holy goddamn it is dense. And now I'm half-obsessed with physically representing protention in a manner that doesn't assert that one particular future is dominant in any given future-Now.
And I'm going over immortality of the transcendental-I from some recommended readings that my professor gave me. No one told me this stuff was so cool

Oh man, Solaris would be fabulous too
Human/non-human communication as a theme has always fascinated me
Yeah, Husserl is pretty boss.
But there are more dense essays/books if you can believe it. Because as dense as Husserl could ever hope to be he will never top Kant.
why havent you read rant yet?

This is what I've been wondering about it. Is the writing distracting? Is it very obviously targeted towards teenage girls, as it seems to be?
Almost all the reading I do these days is on Audible, and I wonder if this is bad for me.
I'm concerned I won't like them because they are YA
Get them anyways y/n?

just picked up extremely loud and incredibly close for a quarter (I've already read it, but I liked it, so why not!)
Get the first one, read the second and third if you're a masochist or have friends who won't get off your back about it; wikipedia the synopsis otherwise.
