I have his copy of Don Quixote and that stupid yellow inlay rubbed off on my hands before I could even get halfway finished with the book. So I can tell that he didn't read it yet.

yes.
he self-admits that he hasn't read much so most recommendations he makes are the "classic" books which pseuds scoff at because everyone should've read them when they were teenagers.
/lit/ shits on him as being stupid, but he admits freely that he doesn't know "how to read" and for some reason seething anons are incapable of changing the channel and watching someone else give a more technical or philosophical breakdown of a book so they just keep watching someone they supposedly dislike kek.
