There's a thread about how people find new books, and one of my favorite ways to find things to read was browsing comments from the weekly 'What are you reading' threads in r/truelit and r/books. So what is Lemmy reading?

I'm finishing The Passenger, and about to jump into John Williams' Stoner. Excited to see what is next!

That book (three-body) was weeeeird. Really thought it was going to go in a very different direction during the introductory chapters.

I don't know if I liked it but it sure made me think about stuff!

I still haven't finished it so I am still forming an overall opinion, but its certainly interesting so far.

Yeah - the opening section really sets you up for something entirely different. I'm glad I stuck with it. 3 Body & the sequels kept me thinking new things during the pandemic
