yes I know it’s a lot, but the second half is just stuff that I want to read eventually/things I have a vague interest in reading and that’s why it’s separate from the “essentials”
I have a physical copy of Capital and I tried to read it years ago, it’s just long, dense, and frankly boring
Edit: I didn’t see that you said what is to be done, I meant to add that so thank you for reminding me
How far did you get into Capital? The first few chapters are a real meat grinder, but it does pick up after that. “First few chapters” does minimize the effort though, ha, since that’s like its own book in and of itself.
my brain has completely blocked out any memory of my experience reading it (boredom or trauma, call it)
Length aside it is a good list, I more meant it as a don’t get discouraged if you don’t finish it all in a year
I definitely understand where you are coming from with Capital. It really isn’t one of the more enjoyable reads out there, but it is essential. For that one it might be worth joining a reading group to make it more digestible
Oh definitely, though I am making good progress. All of the checkmarks are things that I read entirely within the space of my spare time in school yesterday, and I’m nearly done with Utopian and Scientific which I also started yesterday. also, what is to be done was already on the list lol
