>>141697I got a decent ways through Hemingway's "A Farewell to Arms" a few weeks ago. I haven't progressed much on anything since then though
Been doing some re-reads on FimFiction lately.
I'd been intending on getting to Gulag Archipelago after an anon kindly posted a .pdf.
There's a reading thread in /ub/ fyi

Lately I don't have time to sit and read physical books so much, but I have been absorbing books via audiobook while I'm doing other things, particularly driving.
I've been working my way through an essential /pol/ reading list I found here on and off while also slogging my way through The Story of Civilization. A few months ago decided to take a bit of a break and do some fiction for a while. I recently finished This Side of Paradise by F. Scott Fitzgerald, along with The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket and some other random Poe stories. During the fall I was on kind of an H.P. Lovecraft kick.
>>141702I've been reading this on and off too. The version I have is the Stalag translation which was recommended to me by either here or /pol/, I forget which. Is the Ford translation significantly better?
>>141697I'm in a children's literature class so I had to read a lot of kids books this semester, I recently re-read The Girl Who Owned a City and while it wasn't as good as I remember it still has a charm to it, today I read through The Call of the Wild and thought it was great and I'm planning on reading White Fang as well as London's other stories. Now I just have to read through Roll of Thunder, Hear my Cry to finish the required readings, the class was actually quite nice and I got to read through a lot of books that I never would have considered, I would recommend to any one who doesn't want to read through a longer book or series to pick up an older kids book.
>>141706I have no basis of comparison to be honest
