Tips: 0.00 INK Postby Joseph_Bennett on Wed Oct 14, 2020 8:13 pm

Hello, people of RPG. I want to know if any of you have recommendations for books I should read. I recently bought Dune after reading it, and want to get my hands on a copy of 1984, Animal Farm, and Catcher in the Rye. I don't really know if I should purchase them or just get them from my library, but I'll figure it out. Now, is there anything any of you think I could read to better myself as a writer and as a person?
Yours Truly,
Joseph Bennett

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
-Frank Herbert, Dune.

Tips: 2.50 INK Postby Absenthia on Thu Oct 15, 2020 7:24 pm

If you haven't already, browse through some of the suggestions on Good Reads.

Considering your listed books, read "The Giver" and the "Wrinkle in Time" series if you haven't already. I recall them asking a lot of the same or similar questions that the other books do.

If you want, you can also go to the Dune Chronicles series with "Dune: Messiah".

But on the other hand if you want to read more banned books (which 1984 and Animal Farm are on the list!) check out this list on Good Reads.
