So, /lit/, I haven't been here for about a year and a half now, after getting a job and doing other real-life stuff, and, more importantly, leaving due to the mind-numbing pretentiousness of the board at the time, and here I am again.
I just finished During the Rains & Flowers in the Shade. Pretty outstanding novellas. During the Rains particularly, but that's besides the point. I'm using it as the image so you guys don't immediately dismiss this thread on first glance as a pleb thread (even though that's totally what it is)
Anyways, when I was putting the book back on my bookshelf I couldn't help but pick up a book I hadn't read in 10 years. It's a YA fantasy fiction book called Posion by Chris Wooding. It's probably just rose-colored glasses, but holy shit. It's a blast to go through again. The prose isn't good but it isn't decidedly trash, and the plot is as interesting as I remember it. Almost like an Alice in Wonderland type vibe, but darker.
So, /lit/, what are your guilty pleasures? Is it due to nostalgia? Are you too patrician (read: insecure) for them?
