What books have left an impression on you?

I'm looking for something to read and I've been disappointed continuously. Any suggestions?
/lit/ just keeps recommending classic fiction and they're all terribly dull and have nothing to say.

I too, am interested in some Sup Forums approved reading material

Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand

...

Moby Dick.

Absolute masterpiece with a ton of entertainment, but also depth.

>books
way to let the jews control you

LotR is 100% redpilled.
Reading Deluge from Henryk Sienkiewicz atm, he is also pretty based.

Camp of the Saints. You won't put it down and is more relevant now more than ever.

The prince of nothing series. It's about a posthuman monk in a medieval-fantasy post-apocalyptic world, and aliens that bioengineered a race of creatures creatures which literally fuck people before or after killing them.

Best fantasy series I've ever read.

The Bible.

Nigga what Im at page 500 and I simply couldnt keep on reading, That idiot keeps on talking about the anatomy of the whale and MobyBitch is still nowhere to be seen fml senpai.

Nosotromo by Joseph Conrad is pretty awesome

Most books by Brandon Sanderson. Its like anime in text format!

Whaling is always great desu.

The picture of Dorian Gray is pretty neat. There is a character, Lord Harry, complete madman and nihilist, the way he talks and sees things are thought-provoking.

Reading this one right now. It's just history but good. I mostly read sci-fi, adventure and fantasy but been getting into ones where I can actually obtain some knowledge.

I have to mention Red Rising as a good book to break away from anything too serious.

who are you trying to impress

Fahrenheit 451 and
Tell the truth and shame the devil

It's all about the buildup to Moby Dick.

The entire book summarizes the typical whaling journey, and that includes in-depth descriptions of whaling procedure. A person who loves the ocean should love this book.

But then again, how can I expect a canadian to understand a great American classic?

we by zamyatin

Pure based American.

Pure bakamerican, If you do not read, you will never gain any culture, any knowledge. It's your choice if you do not read jewish books, but do not shitpost this hard to prevent other people from reading.

The camp of the saints

The myth of the twentieth century

The Divine Comedy is also amazing if you enjoy religious fiction.

It is extremely interesting to read about the internal structure of Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven. It is basically catholic fanfiction, though.

Less reading, more action. You fucking cucks.

Read all those

His hedonistic take on religion of the future seems likely and plausible at the rate we're going, hard to believe it was written so long ago and so much will come true. He got the whole small cassette/cell phone shit way off tho

RARE

Maths and Litterature are the quintessence of European Genius.

If you do not read you are basically a nigger.

10 book series. Blows game of thrones out of the water. This is god tier fantasy.

...

Camp of the Saints

Besides the plot, you can basically draw a direct line from actual public figures and the characters in the book.

...

read "the shallows" by nicholas carr. it's made me rethink my blind technological optimism.

If you're into Military history like me Osprey publish some great stuff on all kinds of battles and campaigns.

Discourses of Epictetus

About a dude who preached equality for everyone and hated corporations yet lived most of his life of his rich friend earnings.

currently reading the brothers karamazov

Just look up old books.
Pretty much all old books are not PC at all and doesn't make you angry while reading it.

The Meditations of Marcus Aurelius

Shameless Bump

Inner Space by Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan is really engaging desu, he explains how esoteric Jewish theology fits into every aspect of life, from education, to pubs, to marriage

Books I have read so far.

The Cycle of Arawn Books 1-3
Red Rising Books 1-3
Dawn of Wonder Book 1
Holes
Fahrenheit 451

You clearly dont understand it or havent read it.

What would pol recommend for learning history of Western civilization?
Something celebrating it of course.

I read that. Twas good

The Brothers Karamazov by Dostoevsky

If i say any brazillian book, will anyone understand?

Atlas Shrugged
It was also the only recreational reading ive done outside of twilight and harry wewuztter

Ride the tiger, Evola.
The ruins, Rebatet.

I just finished Crime and Punishment which I really liked. Starts out low but after the murder things get really interesting. Lot of good discussion as to what motivates crime and whether something should be criminal just because it's against the law and when is it excusable to break the law. Also a good suspense novel so the story is good too even without the philosophy

Just a side question: what happens to the white knight when the "lady" goes of with Jamal?

Im asking because you guys have far more experience of such situations.

Anathem
Nineteen Eighty-Four
Kallocain (similar to but predates 1984)
Slaughterhouse-Five

candide

Plx no Paulo Coelho bullshit

If you like history, particularly Roman, anything by Goldsworthy is amazing. Starting his Caligula soon.

Nice try info parasite.
The influential book I read was the fault in our stars.

This. One of the most hilarious books I've read.

It's short, sweet, and redpilled.

>Just a side question: what happens to the white knight when the "lady" goes of with Jamal?
Portugal happens.

>Im asking because you guys have far more experience of such situations.
Are you sure about that?

This

old books are the best. now days the authors narcissism shows

try Occidentalism by Ian Buruma
>SUCCESS BREEDS JEALOUSY

2nd, that and Tristram Shandy are /comfy/ as hell

...

Which Way Western Man

Thanks for the info. I was actually reading up about Caligula yesterday. I might have to get that one if it is on Audible.

asoiaf by Martin

>Are you sure about that?

youtube.com/watch?v=dCDMGu-xi30

Yes.

When I was 12 I read farenheit 451 and read it 3 more times in high school. Made lots of sense to me.

The jungle book- "For the strength of the pack is the wolf and the strength of the wolf is the pack."

The ground is burning
Four Fingers of death
Island (classic)

Google descriptions, had it typed up before I accidentally pressed the back button.

wow, how about normal classic literature, shameless amerifat?

Steven Pinker's The Better Angels of our Nature
Francis Fukuyama's The Origins of Political Order
John Milton's Areopagitica
George Orwell's 1984
George Orwell's essay Notes on Nationalism
Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf
Unabomber Manifesto
Thomas Paine's The Age of Reason

I don't necessarily agree or disagree with all of the stuff in those books but they left a lasting impression on me, politically and historically at least, and helped to refine and expand my own understanding of the world around me

Legend of Drizz't Do'Urden

Basically about a Dark Elf who slowly starts to realize his kind is basically the nigger of the realm

hey some Americans don't read at all. but the game of thrones is cringe

I really hope Danny decends into madness by the next book.

Also, shades children.

Absurdistan
Lovecraft
1984
Paradise Lost

Its not exactly high-class literature; but I've started reading the Saxon Chronicals starting with The Last Kingdom. Great books. I'm onto the 5th book now.

I've been reading non-fiction for ever. If there's some real though-provoking nonfiction, sure. But I'm just looking to expand my view
