And theory to read
😅
I try to alternate between fiction and theory, helps me digest the theory better while maintaining interest and momentum in reading!
Nice
Anything fiction book you would recommend to a comrade? I like SF but can read anything good
I’ve been working through classics and they are usually a bit dated. Dune is goodish, but also I prefer the new movies for their much better treatment of women, the Fremen, and removal of the wierder parts. Neuromancer feels like Gibson wrote it with one hand and has never spoken to a woman in his life.
I remember loving Roadside Picnic a while back. If you want to be incredibly sad, Han Kang’s Human Acts is brutal but beautifully written.
Thank you for the recommendations!
EReaders made a big difference for me. I now plow through books when I used to not be able to read a single novel in a year.
I do find I mostly read ebooks nowadays as well.

Then there are the rotting watermelons over in corner, expensive books that a professor in college required and then almost never used. And now they sit, unlovable and difficult to resell because a new edition has come out with the problems at the back of the chapter rearranged.
Genuinely have a stack of books (mostly theory with some fiction) that sits on the floor next to my desk. I swear I will read them all one day.
