[–] giantripdrop@piefed.social 5 points 6 months ago (2 children) catch-22 is a good book though. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] sudoMakeUser@sh.itjust.works 1 point 6 months ago (1 child) I do mean to read it at some point haha. I read a decent amount, that's why I I'm surprised by their list. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] giantripdrop@piefed.social 2 points 6 months ago There are only a couple on there I have actually read, a few more I've heard of. The Cormac McCarthy books I enjoyed, insofar as one can enjoy those subjects (The Road and Blood Meridian). The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K LeGuin is one I'd recommend to fantasy/scifi fans. And when I was younger I didn't enjoy it, but I always find myself engaged with Hemingways stories even when I think I won't be (A farewell to arms). permalink fedilink source parent
