I’ve finally fallen in love with reading again over the last year. Problem is I’ve only been reading non-fiction. it makes my brain hurt. I’d like to have some stuff I can turn to when attempting to read gender trouble gives me another headache. I don’t have any particular preference for genre. I used to read fantasy, historical fiction, dystopian stuff but I’m more than happy to explore other genres as well!

A short list of things I’ve read for reference:

  • The saxon stories, Bernard Cornwell
  • LOTR, the hobbit
  • 1984
  • The road, Cormac McCarthy
  • The plague dogs, Richard Adams

    I totally didn’t know about libgen, that’s an awesome resource! I’ve used Project Gutenburg for public domain stuff, but sometimes they just haven’t digitized the work I’m looking for. Between the two of them I bet there won’t be much that isn’t available.

      Happy to spread the word, enjoy! If you’ve got an e-reader, calibre is a handy library program that can format, find covers, edit metadata, etc. for your epubs/whatever format yours uses

        Caliber is great! It’s super nice to not be chained to some specific bookseller’s store/library.
