Any good books you’ve read lately? Like, anything with even the veil of being politically agnostic (hexbear.net)

I love books recommended on here but unless I specify you mfs will recommend theory. You all read anything captivating without overt political themes?

Read The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho recently. I don't read a ton of fiction, I don't have visual imagination (unless I do DMT or a lot of dabs) so over the top visual descriptions don't do anything for me.

Oh and Hiroyuki Nishigaki's "How to Good-bye Depression: If You Constrict Anus 100 Times Everyday. Malarkey? or Effective Way?" which is pretty funny.

I have vivid visual imagination and The Alchemist still sucked you're not missing out on much.
