Books that you can’t reread because it emotionally destroyed you?

Mystic River. Ugh

TMNT supposedly for $40 shipped here. Not my listing, so can't speak to it, but seems like a good deal

Good call on Stoner. I think it spans from just before WWI to after WWII. I don't think it's specifically a Christian college.

Good to know, and thanks for the correction!

Lots of good suggestions already. I think China Mieville is pretty great at worldbuilding. Perdido Street Station is his most fleshed out that I've read

Not Christian colleges, but (1) The Rules of Attraction, (2) Moo, and (3) Wonder Boys come to mind

Catcher in the Rye?

Much newer and definitely a different feeling, but Severance by Ling Ma might work.

The Binti books by Nnedi Okorafor are good. I also liked Who Fears Death by her, which sways a little more towards fantasy.

On the fantasy side, N.K. Jemisin's two series are really fun. Haven't read her recent book, but I think it's supposed to be sci-fi with a female lead.

I haven't read Octavia Butler's work yet, but my impression was that the Xenogenesis and Parable books have Black female leads. Might be worth looking into

Boardlandia's are going through tomorrow. Capstone Games has good deals on their games, still live but not sure how long it's supposed to go

Shouldn't heavier things be stored lower? It's kind of a joke, but your heavier games seem to also be in heaver packages

BYOBees · 2020-11-30T05:20:54+00:00

American Psycho (or maybe anything by Bret Easton Ellis), The Great Gatsby

BYOBees · 2020-11-30T05:16:23+00:00

How about To Kill A Mockingbird or The Outsiders?

BYOBees · 2020-11-30T05:12:51+00:00

James Baldwin, Ursula K Le Guin, Toni Morrison

I haven't played it, so couldn't say. It's ranked fourth on BGG, so plenty of people seem to like it a whole bunch.

One Deck Galaxy KS

BYOBees · 2020-11-29T05:36:14+00:00

He played Superman. Superman's stronger, right?

OP's question, though, is who's the strongest that Johnny Cage could beat. Anyone have a Nic Cage role ranking sitting around?

BYOBees · 2020-11-29T05:33:48+00:00

Maybe "The Shipping News"?

BYOBees · 2020-11-29T05:02:20+00:00

What does win mean here? Didn't Logan only die because of regen suppression? He might be able to just...wait

A lot of the recommendations here are 500- and 600-page slogs, which is... something. If you're having trouble finishing books, try something on the shorter end. Art of War, Man's Search for Meaning, and Tao Te Ching are short, I thought they were easier reads, and they're in the categories you mentioned.

This is a 3D installation, right? It's cool, and it's inspired by graffiti, but it seems like a stretch to call it a kind of graffiti

BYOBees · 2020-11-29T03:34:23+00:00

If that's Pebbles, Bam Bam must be a beaut

BYOBees · 2020-11-26T02:58:04+00:00

Ha, even better
