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!

    Loved Wheel of Time, but damn does it slow down a lot after the first three books. There are some really awesome moments in the next ones but there are so many threads to follow that the overall story sometimes barely moves in the course of a book. It speeds back up again a little after Sanderson takes over for the last three.

      Yeah, that’s why I’ve stopped reading it. But its so good to learn English, I sometimes return to it over and over again.

      I’ve also liked The Black Company series, that was a good read for like 3 first books.
