I wonder if I'll make it through Don Quixote and Count of Monte Cristo in 2026. I'm starting light with brave new world, catcher in the rye, and then Kafka.

    What should I start with? I just watched the trial and decided I needed to read some

    The Trial is my favorite of his tbh but The Metamorphosis is fantastic as well even if it is somewhat overhyped. These are the only two I have read so far but I am sure his other books are great.

    Count of Monte Cristo is great but it was a bit of a slog at times if I'm honest. Granted last time I read it it was for school and I had to plow through all 650 pages or so in less than a week because I put it off til the last second
