hello! could you recommend me some books or authors? anything really. you seem to have great taste and i'm trying to diversify my library. to be honest i haven't read anything from start to finish in a while, except for college stuff
hi!! wow thank you, that's so kind of you to say, and it's sort of funny for me to come across like that because i haven't finished a book in ages. one that's not too heavy and could get you out of that reading rut is andre aciman's alibis which i'm loving but have abandoned even though i'm almost done w it! haha. another one i liked and read quickly (so, not too dense a read, although in terms of topics it might be) is john steiner's errata. he does go into specifics with some topics and that might be a bit boring but generally i found it entertaining and flew through it, and absolutely loved it. hmm what else! i wish i had more recs to give. some of my favs are the book of disquiet, ari and dante + call me by your name (actually good ya/contemporary; easy reads!), notes from underground, el arpa y la sombra by carpentier, anything by borges (idk what the translations are like though), and maybe you could read the ask polly book! (another light read) again, didn't finish it hahaha, but i think it's more for like skimming through the chapters and reading what you like! hope this was somewhat useful haha xx
