I'm really into The Book of the New Sun right now. It's turning into one of my favorite reads.
I'm also reading The Crying of Lot 49(I stopped halfway trough last year but now I want to finish it) and the trpg book Daggers in the Dark since I'm gonna play it soon.

nanba 51 -- delingquent comedy manga about a guy that's overpowered but wants to live an average life. People around him trying to exploit his "delinquent" personality (he dresses up really unfashionably to the point no one can recognise him)
I reincarnated in to a otome game villianess with all destruction flags (or smth i dunno) -- exactly what it sounds like.

She plays a otome game, she gets sucked into it. She doesn't realize that she's not a game character until she's bangs her head. Then she tries to reform the nature of the otome game villianess. Kinda funny because she keep stealing all the boyfriends from the mc unintentionally.
Also made in abyss - android and a young girl... really hard to explain.....

If you're talking about webtoons, I'm also reading lookism -- about how our world is so materialistic everyone judges on the looks. And one day that changes because for the first time, an ugly person's personality in a pretty boy's body and can empathise at the same time live like a pretty boy. The first season is good, i'm not so sure, but i'll keep reading.

Hey, this has become quite a peaceful place. AHEM. I'm currently not reading something, but I plan on reading a book about philosophy, due to my history teacher wanting us to do a presentation about the greek philosphers.

>>429732 I am actually enjoying it. It's just that I'm not American and wanted to know of all those old references so I had to stop every now and then and google. So I guess that's the reason I never finished a book I greatly enjoyed. It made such an impression on me that it never left my mind so I want to truly finish it.
>>429789 Hey, I used to read Robin Hobb. I absolutely loved the first six books but I never read the fools trilogy.
