You can talk about the merits and beauty of books only you've read. I was about to make a thread about your favorite quotes. In those threads reading the books doesn't mean much since the quotes are all succinct enough to fit in a post
>“What I want is to live of that initial and primordial something that was what made some things reach the point of aspiring to be human.” ― Clarice Lispector, The Passion According to G.H.
This book is mentioned fairly often but I rarely if ever see it actually discussed. And I'm probably the only person to post this one of the my all time favorite quotes.

I really just don't get it. Why does it seem the majority here would rather talk about Crime and Punishment for the millionth time rather than find and discuss things that haven't been beaten to death for going on a century. It's weird as fuck.
As far as Fernandez goes The Museum of Eterna's Novel is one of the most difficult works I've ever read so that probably has something to do with its obscurity but its also one of the most rewarding. It's nothing less than the greatest meta-fiction I've ever read and I've read a lot of meta-fiction.

that's one of the best books i've ever read

Enjoy!

uggggggggggggggggggh what the fuck am I reading? It's impossible. She gives you no context to understand what the fuck her vague statements even mean. It's so difficult you don't even know, you're probably gonna say it's really easy too.
