I figured we could have a casual thread to talk about what we're reading. That's the main part of literature after all, in a way. I'll make a start in the comments; feel free to post something!

Finishing up a fan translation of Sacred and Terrible Air by Robert Kurvitz of Disco Elysium fame. It's a bit janky at points but I'm enjoying it. Hits a lot of similar notes as DE, so if you're a fan of the game I'd recommend giving SATA a read. Read the Ibex translation if you do.
Also recently finished Lincoln in the Bardo which was amazing. Really powerful stuff. Gonna check out more of Saunders' books now.
I'd suggest the short story collection In Persuasion Nation, I think it's his best.
Yeah I was thinking either getting that or Tenth of December first
Yeah Tenth of December is good, and has the story The Semplica Girls Diaries which is one of his best. He's a lib, and so tends to do his best writing during Republican administrations because it gets him fired up, which is why I recommend In Persuasion Nation.
