Don Quijote is a classic
I had to read Ulysses in college and while I enjoyed the book, I have bad memories attached to it because the teacher made us analyze almost every single sentence

Knight, for some reason I dislike every single non-war book set in 20th century, they usually try to be too deep or some shit.

Waitasec boyo, you mean your teacher made you analyze almost every sentence from a 1000+ pages novel?

nah I was just exaggerating, but she still made us do a throughout analysis of the book which just took the enjoyment out of it. I should read it again just for pleasure one of these days.

I believe it. Literature teachers are cunts like that. They almost made me hate reading (thankfully I didn’t, as reading is one of my copes)

School in general made me hate reading, but now it's my best cope as well.

I think Don Quixote is a better idea tbh. I haven't read any of them but from my time on /lit/ I have the understanding that dq is good and fairly easy read while Ulysses is a difficult meme book.

I loved 1984 and Brave New World, war and piece was boring imo, i've yet to read the Dickens novel, my favorite books(as of now) are: Gravity's Rainbow and The Satanic Verses.

Tbh, difficult meme books are great, hell, my two favorite books are just that, but Don Quixote's story seems more enjoyable to me.

War in peace was amazing once i got to gripa with who was who and past the politics into the fighting
