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!

I just picked up a copy of house of leaves. Saw it referenced a few times in some other media I liked and figured I may as well check out the book itself.

It's a dense read, but I enjoyed it. I'll admit that I enjoyed it more when I became willing to skim over spots when it got a little too tedious. I've got my own theory on what's going on, and I'd talk about it if I knew how to insert spoilers.

I feel like this is gonna be one I'll need to make a few passes on to really get everything that's going on
