What are the most iconic books from your country? I'm in the mood for classics and I want to read about characters with different worldviews and histories from myself so, if you have a recommendation/s please put it in the comments and lemme know where you're from. 💖 I'll start, I'm from México and here are some iconic books by mexican writers:

• The Murmur of Bees (El murmullo de las abejas) by Sofía Segovia
• Pedro Páramo by Juan Rulfo
• Like Water for Chocolate (Como agua para chocolate) by Laura Esquivel

I don't know if its just me, but when I'm reading books I kind of just have stock characters from like tv shows and stuff that I imagine with the characters instead of trying to visualize them from character descriptions. I'm trying to do better but also I feel like this is just a skill I haven't build up and find I keep falling back on what I was doing before. If anyone has any ideas of how I can get better at this that would be great!

Okay guys, I am gonna sound like Woketron3000, but I find it kinda strange that in such a patriarchal society wealthy women frequently use male prostitutes. Like you would imagine that if it turned out a noblewoman hired a prostitute, her reputation would be tarnished completely. But for some reason, in this world people like Archer are able to get very rich and famous.

Hi guys, im in need of dire help rn! the thing is, i read 200 books a year, but not a single one of them had been non fiction or a classic or LITERATURE in general, it was all romance and fantasy and sci fi and basically a lot of fluff, which i am all for, but i really want to diversify my reading so could yall please please please recommend some classics for begginers!!!!

dare I say that I like Chaol a lot more than Dorian. I am not attracted to a prince whose description uses only the words charming, beautiful, etc. Grumpy captain>>>

I always ask that, but will it get any more interesting? So far, there don't seem to be any plot hooks that make you want to continue 😪
