von Eichendorff again. My perennial go to.
Cloud Cuckoo Land
The Scythe trilogy is pretty good
Currently reading:
1. TC Boyle's Outside Looking In - the novel tries to make sense of how, in the span of a decade, the therapist's couch gave way to such trends as "mind expansion" and total consciousness. The well-meaning hopes as well as the predictable and unforeseeable consequences of this move. The introduction involving Hoffman synthesizing and trying LSD on himself is quite the drag, but the rest of the book is remarkable.
2. Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist - Finally got around to reading this. In fact, one could argue that alchemy is also one of the main but implicit themes in Outside Looking In. Nonetheless, this one is a quick read, and pretty good too.

Wrong. You're reading the latest One Punch Man manga and you know it ShinShin.
Persona non grata
Read a book, any book before they're all burned and their authors crucified as heretics.
Respect my lack of authority.

My mind wanders when I read. I prefer audiobooks.
