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!

    Currently listening to Dust by Hugh Howey (book 3 of the Wool/Silo books)

    Ive also been slowly reading MaddAddam by Margeret Atwood (book 3 of the MaddAddam series)

      How is the narration? I’ve noticed that even my favorite books are so boring if the narrator is bad.

        Personally ive been enjoying it a lot. But i also listen to a lot of audio books. There arent a lot of times ive had to stop listening to books. I think a lot of modern audio narration has gotten really good

      I just did a re-read (or relisten) of Dust because of the Apple adaptation!

      Also I read the Maddaddam series last year and found it to be enjoyable and very well written.
