There's a thread about how people find new books, and one of my favorite ways to find things to read was browsing comments from the weekly 'What are you reading' threads in r/truelit and r/books. So what is Lemmy reading?

I'm finishing The Passenger, and about to jump into John Williams' Stoner. Excited to see what is next!

After read the Stormlight Archives, one needs a "breather". Epic story. I think I read "Vagina" after. Needed something non-fiction.

Absolutely a breather is necessary. I only read fiction but of course I'm reading Essex Dogs too fast, and I've accidentally stayed up until 2 AM the last two nights reading it in bed. I might need to throw in another palate cleanser novel after it before I start Rhythm of War. I've had Us Against You sitting on my shelf, side-eyeing my for quite awhile now, so maybe that?
