Weekly "what are you reading" Thread #66 :marseyreading:

To discuss your weekly readings of books, textbooks and papers.

I'm still reading Ben Wilson's "Metropolis" as I've been very slow this week and I ended up reading almost nothing.

Getting tired of Murakami's straggotry. I wish Mishima wasn't so difficult so I could read an lgbtq+ author

Literally the only reason I learned jappernese is so I can tell weebs "yea, I speak Japanese. No, I'vd never watched an 'anime', what's that?"

I genuinely loved his books, but I quit the habit at "Kafka on the Shore", the 11th as I couldn't dedicate the energy to keeping track of things. I'd recommend "Birthday Stories", an anthology selected by him. It's quite charming.
