which genre you like to read? and do you suggest any books from that genre
1 reply
I've been reading a lot of nonfiction lately (mainly on historical or economic subjects) but from fiction I like dystopia, I can recommend war with newts from Čapek, animal farm or 1948 from Orwell or 451 fahrenheit from Bradbury. I've also heard that Atlas Shrugged from Rand is good but it's a long read.

I have to second this. The first book in the series is somewhat ok, the rest are annoying to read. I don't know what Douglas Adams is striving for but it's annoying either way.
Not read it all yet, why it's bad for you?

It depends if you'd get into it but my favorite zombie series is like a comedy/adventure book called 'The Undead' by RR Heywood, its so amazingly funny and stupid at times, but also a brilliant take on how a failure in life becomes somehow this successful post apocalyptic survivor with his gang

That's interesting how peoples taste differ. I had to read it for my Bachelorarbeit and it made me mad because I remember it being so badly written. It wasn't joyful to read it because of the writing style. Very interesting.

if you like sci-fi, well, pick up ANY BOOK by Philip K. Dick. Personally would recommend:
Martian Time-Slip, this is such a nice treat. The story shifts abruptly and makes for a very uneasy atmosphere that consumes you the deeper you dive into the characters and their troubles. Far-reaching realizations help you along.
Clans of the Alphane Moon, dark schizophrenic proto-future-fantasy comedy mix.
Ubik, well, deservedly on TIME's top100 list in 2009, the unsettling nightmare sets early and just goes on without relief. Great fucking tension right here.

I hate these kind of questions, same with the film ones. A quick google search will give you list upon list of essential reads in any genre, including more general ones. These kind of questions are just a waste of everyone's time.

it builds the habit of reading. the worst type of reader is the one who reads a young adult book a day, but at least they won't go saying "didn't read" on the internet like illiterate people.
you're in the digital age now. the amount of people that actually reads are getting lower and lower. i wouldn't say the act of reading itself was productive a century ago, but now...
i fear the time when we become mindless androids like the humans in WALL-E.

Childhood's End
Rendezvous with Rama
Foundation Series
Well the only books I read willingly were the Harry Potter series so that's my suggestion. Other than that I enjoy calculus and other math, logic and physics textbooks, these are unironically very exciting.

u should choose books according to ur taste not cuz someone is recommending it. what movies u like, what genre? for me i like horror mystery and poetry books. but mayb u dont like it.
I can already see many good sci-fi tips. If you want old vibe (1920-30s) and short with clear meassege and no sequels I can only recomend czech author Karel Čapek who oppened my doors into sci-fi. I dont know how good english translations are but here are his 2 best works that imo survived to its day unlike his most recognized work called R.U.R.

TEH GOAT FRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Mark Twain's "Personal Recollections of Joan of Arc" is a beautiful little novel I read recently. I have developed a great fondness of Mark Twain's storytelling and I would recommend that perhaps any of his novels are fun to read, but they do definitely have a hint of American-ness that may require more familiarity to appreciate (eg, Tom Sawyer or Huck Finn, which he is more renowned for), therefore I recommend his Joan of Arc story since it is actually so far divorced from any American cultural dressing that it should be more accessible to someone approaching his work anew.
pretty much anything from Stephen King or alternatively the Bible
Not sure if recommended yet.
Out of all the scifi I’ve read I would recommend Cixin Liu’s work. He’s most famous for ‘the three body problem’, which is quite good.
I say I recommend it highly because it’s relatively casual/easy to read through and not too thick while still being quite interesting, so it’s my go-to recommendation for a lot of newer readers, sci-fi wise.
siddhartha was pretty good read.
brothers karamazov
