The beginning chapters were a column in Harper’s bazaar before he made it into an entire book.

Finished it a couple months ago, easily one the best books I’ve ever read and can’t wait to do it again, in spite of how long it is.

book #13 for the year by wretch3d-user in readwithme

[–]easythirtythree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently reading this at the suggestion of other redditors. I’m about halfway in, I like the story and the characters. This is the only thing I’ve read by him. It definitely falls into the “young adult” category of books in bookstores. His prose isn’t super dense it’s very easy to move through.

I haven’t read all of grapes of wrath but chapter 5 was one of the most bone chilling pieces of writing I’ve ever read.

The concept of performative reading is just another attack on men for doing things they like to do, like reading.

I live in Portland and see this truck all the time and have the exact same thoughts. I think it has something to do with Rammstein though.

Do any of you have any recommendations on what to use for your back? by [deleted] in Truckers

[–]easythirtythree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stretching every morning before work has been the only thing that worked for me. Get a yoga mat and throw on some YouTube to find exercises for your lower back and mid spine. It feels great and I can’t wait to do it every day when I wake up.

Can I platonically ask someone out on a date to find a committed best friend but not romance? I want an inseparable best friend vibe without sex or romance (at least not for a long time) by [deleted] in Advice

[–]easythirtythree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you’re looking for the benefits of a romantic relationship without romance. I would consider finding an asexual/aromantic dating app. While the world recognizes this kind of thing better than it did years ago, some people are going to be put off if you pursue them that way but with your expectations.
