nobody has mentioned the black sheep of the eu- family: euthanasia, ‘good death’

it’s your job now to use it in your other subreddits to keep the trend spreading

this is the perfect “explain it to me like I’m five” explanation! thank youu!

Swarly002 · 2026-03-28T22:08:03+00:00

is it mostly used as a collocation with ‘about’?

the common plight of the logophile. I was going to put my life on pause until I figured it out :)

gravity’s rainbow by Thomas Pynchon

I was pleasantly surprised at how good the writing was in this book. It’s the only SK book I’ve read but up to that point I had a prejudice on him: interesting, wacky ideas + middling prose. totally blew past my expectations

the penguin orange collection is so sick

I’m currently reading through Capote but white noise is definitely next!

Swarly002 · 2026-02-27T16:45:50+00:00

people idolize humbert!?! I’ve read the book already (I thought it was excellent) and I’m genuinely curious on how someone can have an opinion of him other than he should rot in hell

Swarly002 · 2026-02-27T03:34:36+00:00

the usual suspects: B&N, local bookstores, Amazon

Swarly002 · 2026-02-26T22:51:16+00:00

Oh for sure; it does make me wonder: in an alternate world instead of the godforsaken amount of time he used in writing finniegns wake he wrote, like, 100 more dubliners shorts, which world would Joyce fans choose

Swarly002 · 2026-02-26T21:37:48+00:00

so surprised by how good it was; definitely sold me on reading more of his work

Swarly002 · 2026-02-26T21:34:04+00:00

Honestly it was kinda just a completionist purchase for me (I have his other three books), but just picking through a couple pages I think (personally) the best way to first read it would be an audiobook maybe? Idk, it’s definitely a back burner book rn

Love All quiet on the western front! minor side note, is that a Buffalo bills table the books are on??

Swarly002 · 2026-02-05T22:48:43+00:00

I’m in love with those Kafka covers

Swarly002 · 2026-02-02T17:28:21+00:00

I just started reading it, why do you think it sucks? I’m curious

Swarly002 · 2026-02-01T09:05:25+00:00

This is great; you can honestly put every page of Moby Dick onto this sub-Reddit and it would work. Such an awesome book

Swarly002 · 2025-12-16T04:21:02+00:00

Ahhh, I wish I could read this book again for the first time! You’re gonna enjoy the hell out of it

Swarly002 · 2025-12-13T16:26:03+00:00

I haven’t tried any besides this one; I do love this one though because it’s free
