I went from age 17 to 30 without reading a book. I read 27 and 1/2 in the last year. Here’s what I read.
I was a pretty constant reader from freshman to senior year of highschool, though I read almost nothing but non consequential YA. I then went from the summer after my senior year to last April 1st without reading a single book. I never lost my interest in books. I always watched reviews, tier lists, etc. But I never had it into me to pick one up. I started taking to someone who was a reader and they re-lit the fire in me, and as such, I put down 27 and 1/2 books in the last 12 months exactly. Here’s what I read.
The Death of Sweet Mister by Daniel Woodrell
Tomato Red by Daniel Woodrell
The Life We Bury by Allen Eskins
The Three Body Problem by Liu Cixin
The Room by Hubert Selby
As I Lay Dying by William Faulkner
The NY Trilogy by Paul Auster
Candide by Voltaire
The Portait of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde
Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky
Lullaby by Chuck Palahniuk
Invisible Monsters Remix by Chuck Palahniuk
A Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
The Illustrated Man by Ray Bradbury
Catch 22 by Joseph Heller
Old Man and the Sea by Earnest Hemmingway
In Our Time by Earnest Hemmingway
East of Eden by John Steinbeck
The Pillowman by Martin McDonough
Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy
Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry
Roadside Picnic by the Strugatsky brothers

I’m mostly making this thread as sort of a diary, but if you have any questions, feel free to ask.
