There's a thread about how people find new books, and one of my favorite ways to find things to read was browsing comments from the weekly 'What are you reading' threads in r/truelit and r/books. So what is Lemmy reading?

I'm finishing The Passenger, and about to jump into John Williams' Stoner. Excited to see what is next!

That sounds really interesting! I'm currently reading a book in the same vein called Misquoting Jesus: The Story Behind Who Changed the Bible and Why by Bart D. Ehrman. As a formerly religious person it's giving me some really interesting insight into how the bible was written, and how changes occurred and what motivated them.
