It's gonna be there for a while, methinks.
>>8207335
I think so too. Expecially with the plato and kant reading groups coming up and my own reading group. Got myself quite busy.
Bow down to the well read gentleman of knowledge

B...but i followed all of /lit's ways and acquired all the books lit told me were big boy books.....where did i go wrong?! Why cant i fit in even on 4chan.
>>8207239
Great collection. How was War and peace?
>>8207383
No you didn't. You have 0/3 books of the meme trilogy.
>>8207399
I...i have two!
>>8207337
i dont like anime but that is a very cute picture
>>8207239
Look at your books, dude. You haven't even read most of them, theyre physically untouched. Stop posturing and namefagging, and stop shitting up /lit/ and /his/ with your [most likely underage] pseud bullshit.

You can't be serious. Think for yourself, faggot.
here's my bookshelf
it's houses my 3 books that are made out of diamonds
do not mind that purple one at the bottom, it is a failed experiment
(it's a book made out of grape jam and strawberry cottage cheese)
sorry about the quality my camera isn't v good
>>8207337
How does one find 'reading groups?'
>>8207796

I'm cringing. Are you six? I literally feel sick reading this.
>>8207569
some people know how to read books without breaking spines. None of my books have broken spines

You can always tell who the memesters are when you see Critique of pure reason next to shit like a brave new world or the art of war.
>>8207796
>>8207921
Not the spines. The pages you poser.
>>8207927
This. OP bought all of his books after seeing them on 4chan then started an entirely new bookshelf thread when there is already one up.
>>8207808
There is one thread earlier about the kant reading group on /lit. I think there was the plato reading group earlier on /his but it archived. If you are interested, drop your email and I can add you to the plato group. We are starting Apology i think monday and more info will be available once u join. :)
>>8207796
i don't think an actual book made out of diamonds would be transparent like that. there would be too many reflective surfaces
>>8207994
>>8207986
What other Kant and Plato have you read? That's a nice copy of War and Peace, how was that? And Gravity's rainbow too, what did you think? Pseud faggot.
>>8207249
jelly of that hardcover Think and Grow Rich. what's the story on that? whats the other book?
>>8207998
>>8207994
what do you think of the league of extraordinary gentlemen volume 3?
i have volumes 1 and 2 and i like them but i recall vol 3 didn't get a very good reception when it was released

How long will it take for me before I can finally integrate into the 4chan /lit community? Will I have to finish reading the top 100 list? What do I have to do? Pls desu.
I am alone, I long for love but am unable to love carelessly. The misfortune of my first love left me broken and heaved me into a world where the perfect first love is now yonder. Do you see my torment now, my agony to life itself? I have been given a chance at the first love but now, I am incorrigible. In my teens, though a nineteen I still am, I found a sanctuary for my pursuits. One was music and has lead me into a life of never ending work; the life of a musician, a composer. I wouldnt say I am an artist yet but through the search for inspiration, /lit entered my world. Literature took a place in my world as that significance as a wedding ring on the bride, ofc metaphorically, and metaphorically, I was the gentleman who allowed the ring to bestow my love. You see ladies and gentleman. The bride is my love, my music, The ring is /lit, and the groomsman is me. Within this metaphorical world, I have reached perfection again, I have been given another chance, a chance that does not rely on the other, but on my own. A fair chance as our sweet prince Elliot Rogerwould say it, as a fair world. This is why I need /lit. This is why I must read and indulge myself into the stories left to the world. This is why I live, to reach perfection at a second chance. I laugh as I type this hypocritically, a second perfection? Yes. Now you understand, now you see why I must read. Enjoy your lived gentleman. Z

thanks for making me feel better about myself

so does this mean you are leaving /lit/ now? awesome.
>>8208127
Dude. Just read what interests you and stop trying to impress strangers on the internet. Youre making a fool of yourself. Do you even enjoy reading or just the image? Have you actually read anything in your OP post? And was that paragraph a joke or are you some r9k autist? Just read a book that you like. >>8208127
>>8208153
The books I read in my list is
Frankenstein
War of worlds
Atlas Shrugged
Brave New world
Stoner
the two deathnote novels
Republic
Currently reading moby dick. Its not about what I like or dont like yet. I dont wanna just pick up a book and see 50 pgs and be like "oh well i dont like it im gonna put it down". I want to see what about the books make them so "great" I want to understand literature, I want a great book to plant a great seed in me, a great idea to help me live the life i want to live and write the music that I deem worthy.

instead of trying to find a book that does that, try a man

I will continue to lurk and when my moment comes, I will shine. Ofc I plan to improve my collection so far and shitpost again. Remember me gentleman, I shan't be gone.

>>8208182
i'll be sure to filter your name and will encourage everyone else to do so as well. shine on!
>>8208182
Never gonna make it.
>>8208169
Why post a picture of a bunch of books you havent read yet? And if you're reading something that you don't understand or enjoy, how are you going to gain anything from it? Kant's Critique of Pure Reason isnt going to "plant a great seed in you" if you dont have the educational basis to make sense of it. Same goes for many other books you have. I just feel you're not being truthful at all with an anonymous image board, so I find it hard to believe you're truthful with those close to you, or even yourself. Like, what are you trying to prove with this childish purple way in which you write your posts? What were you trying to prove with this thread?
>>8208056
Have we found the Wolfeposter?
>>8207239
The I want to be smart but i'm not quite smart at all and really I don't have a clue what i'm doing reading philosophy that's miles ahead of what I can truly understand and going out of order while grabbing all the penguins off the front shelf of barnes and nobles that i can.
You're a literal meme, one of the few things worse then seeing people with just /lit/ memes like IJ and pynchon on the shelves are those who buy philosophy out of order.
Literal kekolds.
>>8208182
Are you missing what we're saying? Why buy more books to add to your pseud collection of shit you havent read? To what end, posturing fuck.
what do yall think of my book?

Thank you anons, today I have learned of my lies to myself. I must no longer be untruthful to myself. I finally understand. I will take voluntary tempory suspension from 4chan and /lit, but mark my name, for I will return as a supreme*er* gentleman. Lets grow up and learn together again once I return from my haitus. So long Gentleman, its been a fun ride so far. Allow me to join you again once I deem myself worthy.

Kim Gordon is a ridiculous person, her book is arguably of even less substance than her actual personal life and buying it is a sign of weakness.
>>8210388
what he says its true though
sorry about the wonky image. cramped shelving area + poor lighting means i'll probably never do this again.

That exact one that OP has is actually not that great. My brother picked up the same copy while in China and it is written in very poor English. It has some dank ass pics of Mao though.
