- Anna Karenina: Tolstoy knows people better than they know themselves
- Brave New World: Aldous Huxley is a genius and a wordsmith
- Dune: a sci-fi masterpiece, highly recommended to anyone into sci-fi
- Zen and The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: not purely fiction but an amazing book I will surely re-read during my lifetime
- Balgair 7y agoKarenina is amazing all these decades later.
- dreamer7 7y agoZen and The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance is really a perspective expanding book. It just took a lot of persistence to get through as, at times, it was quite frustrating to read. Perhaps I should read it again to get a deeper appreciation for it
- Jkol 7y agoSame for me, I loved it for the lessons I learned and I've gifted that book to friends but boy it is a slog to read through.
- acarabott 7y agoLila, the sequel to Zen... had an even bigger impact on me. I also found some of the ideas easier to take away and hold onto.
- pengaru 7y agoZen is worth a read to acquire a label for gumption traps alone. But I must admit I've probably never actually read the entire thing, whenever chapters went deep into Phaedrus land I probably skipped a few pages here and there.
