finally finished on the road, was looking forward to reading it actually but... what a f***ing drag, boring as hell. idk how this is considered the masterpiece of the beat generation

Finished both of these, Stiglitz book was convenient read after the elections feel like I might flick through it wet now and again

Just picked up the pilgrimage by Paul Coelho
And prisoners of geography by Tim Marshall

Damn forgot about this thread

Read United States of Jihad, 48 Laws of Power and The Art of War.

Now onto God Level Knowledge Darts, Gucci Mane Guide to Greatness and still need to finish Takin' Over

Yt people classic. Could be wrong but I could've sworn this man was romanticizing the antebellum slaves at one point

I'm in a reading slump and it's f***ing hell
Still can't pick a book up

Yea said something like he wishes he was born free from worry like a „negroe from the antebellum south“

Yeah he can gtfo

just starting the art of war, i PRAY someone tries me once i’m done with it

Anyone here like comic strips?

it's about an Australian escaped convict getting into the underworld in India. 900+ pages but a real page turner and one of my favorite novels

Deciding between Shantaram and The Way of the kings

hearing Shantaram audiobook right now and its a great story, takes some time to really get going. I can definitely recommend it if you have any potential interest in India

Ayt Imma get on that jawn then. Just opened up and the dude is getting tortured from the jump.
How many hours is the audiobook
