There’s a thread about how people find new books, and one of my favorite ways to find things to read was browsing comments from the weekly ‘What are you reading’ threads in r/truelit and r/books. So what is Lemmy reading?

I’m finishing The Passenger, and about to jump into John Williams’ Stoner. Excited to see what is next!

    I’d highly recommend We are legion we are Bob and off to be the wizard to any fellow tech nerds

    We are legion we are bob is about a guy whose brain is uploaded as an AI into a Von Neumann probe and sent into space to explore the universe.

    Off to be the wizard is about a guy who finds out the world is some kind of simulation, and there’s essentially one big file detailing absolutely everything that can be edited, uses it to go back in time and live as a wizard and make spells with his programming skills

    Both of them have plenty of nerdy references and humour, would highly recommend
