I’ve been so obsessed with my book the last 3 weeks I’ve forgotten to write for social. It’s been nice.
"Shorter the better" is the worst writing advice I bought into.

@nathanbaugh27 I'd add anything Ted Chiang and Borges to this list
Great list. Adding: Shantaram Flowers for Algernon For Whom The Bell Tolls Lonesome Dove Razor’s Edge A Moveable Feast Crime and Punishment Siddhartha The Post Office Ham on Rye … and everything from Steinbeck & Vonnegut
A few fiction books I wish everyone read: The Great Gatsby (Fitzgerald) Foundation (Asimov) Gates of Fire (Pressfield) The Count of Monte Cristo (Dumas) The Nightingale (Hannah) East of Eden (Steinbeck) The Name of the Wind (Rothfuss) Dune (Herbert) Pachinko (Lee) The…
@nathanbaugh27 I’m glad you mentioned The Ocean at the end of the lane. I feel like that’s the Gaiman book that nobody talks about! Also, I’m probably the only person ever who prefers Sirens of Titan > Slaughterhouse Five, but they’re both awesome 1 I didn’t see here that I think is an…
@nathanbaugh27 I've followed his for years and love it, but yes mostly non-fiction, and I would love a fiction one from you. I also think everyone should consider starting their own. We readers can never have enough recs from our favorite writers and creators.
@nathanbaugh27 Read "The Radetzky March" (J Roth, not P Roth) -- brilliant journey into Europe, heart-wrenching family epic, sharp contrast to America and Gatsby
@nathanbaugh27 I just started reading 100 Years of Solitude as two good friends, both now passed, told me it was their favourite book. After putting it off for 3 decades, I've finally cracked it. I love this feeling of reading a highly recommended book for the first time. Thanks for your list.
@nathanbaugh27 Hope you enjoy the rest of the books! There's also a fourth book written by a fan that has the blessing of the author.
@nathanbaugh27 I'd add: The crucible (Arthur miller) Small gods (Terry pratchett) Pride and prejudice (austen) Founding brothers (ellis) Starship troopers (heinlein) Rape of Nanking (chang) Bury my heart at wounded knee (brown) Legend (gemmell) In conquest born(friedman)
@nathanbaugh27 I've read many, I'll use this as a reference list.
