I'm a /lit/ tourist who only read all the Goosebumps in elementary school before stopping fiction reading entirely once I discovered the internet, but I happened upon Borges several years ago and still fell in love. The lack of plot, characters, and sexuality is a feature, not a bug. He (and Stine) are still the only two fiction writers I read to this day.
