I love that all books are from 1923 on and in the English language. Cause, you know, nothing is revelant before then.
I didn't think books were entertaining, so I put here.

thats a graphic novel why dont people just knock off the shit and stop saying "graphic novel"?
it's a fucking comic book!
I love him. He's like those happy old people who become known for sitting by the side of a busy street and waving to passing cars. People drive by regularly and beep just to see him and get him to wave to them.
That's just like our Arpi... except he doesn't wave or anything. He just says mean things to you.

spider man is a comic book.
Watchmen is a novel.

and frankenstein, lord jim, and heart of darkness, were all published prior to 1923.
