Just started the full collection of Edgar Allan Poe’s work.

Also going through Ambrose Bierce’s work as well.

In terms of more modern literature, I’m reading Acceptance by Jeff VanderMeer amd Book 2 of the Three-Body Problem series by Liu Cixin.

For the most part, I’m looking for a good fantasy series or historical fiction series, but I’m not sure where to start or where to find a good one.

What about the rest of you? Reading anything you like?

    I haven’t read fiction for over a year. If you want something non-fiction thats not too heavy I’d suggest Walden by Henry David Thoreau. Although be warned, he often wrote like he just discovered a thesaurus.

      Walden is pretty good. I read a bit of it and wanted to throw out most of my shit. It’s a book that gets me into spring cleaning mood.

      I do remember needing to look up some words, but compared to a lot of communist writing from the turn of the century it’s comparatively light reading.
