Shit list, retard

>> No.23088110

true but I would not understand much from those books, as I am a humble retard. Therefore I will endeavor to read at least 30 pages per day from less daunting works, such as the titles in the /lit/ starter kit, which I am told are both accessible and of a superior quality. Thank you for your encouraging reminder, and may you have a productive year as measured by the great books completed by year's end..

I started off the year really well but plateaued. This is the wake-up call I needed. Thank you.

Reminded me of Macbeth: "I have no spur to prick the sides of my intent".

I'm going to be reading War and Peace later on this year bros. Kinda nervous desu this would be my 2nd book over 1000 pages

I'm a bit of a attentionlet and even doing like 60 pages on fantasy is a bit of a struggle

it adds up to 20201 so yeah you need to read about 65 pages per day instead. Which is quite doable

I'd rather write 10% of that than reading a bunch of pretentious shit. Have you tried opening JR, anon?
Reading is not a virtue it's a means.
