accidentally went into a London Marxist bookshop and purchased this. Loved Paxton's work on Vichy and also love this so far, engaging and descriptive. Love reading about fascism

bought a real copy to appease Sam Gibson

Gifted by my ex a year ago and unread until now

Sam got mad at me for reading this as a PDF so now we wait

July's book club reading - my choice. Love it! Captivating. Big fan of John's blog so knew I'd be interested in the characters he unearths within the American 90s. Can't wait to finish it after work

this has sooooooooo lost momentum and there's like 250 pages left and I can't bring myself to do ittttt. there's other books I wanna read nowwwweee but I PERSIST. I really liked this when I had the MOMENTUM but I feel bogged down. the skinning scene one of the most harrowing things I've ever read

idk why I have this downloaded on my phone but I read the demo and I'm realllllllly enjoying it. great author

James loves his East Germany so it's this month's explicit book club pick. I like how human the stories are and very individual focused. I am however a communist

maybe I hate childhood because I realllllllly got into it today. It's an excuse to text Emily if I fear there's a lull in our conversation. Really did get emotional about Johnny, bless his heart. And the horrid scene with the sex offender was great. Hit a STRIDE today I'm #loving it

this is gonna be the longest journey of my life. it's engaging! I really like how it's written. The part with the marijuana addict is my favourite so far

lol this is going to take me a thousand years to finish

I like Piketty I liked studying him in Brussels I wish he got to implement socialism with Jeremy Corbyn but good things never happen in this awful awful world

SPEEDING through. Currently really enjoying it. Oddly feels more comedic than atomised? Perhaps it's because I'm in a better place than when I read it. Intending on buying and rereading atomised after this regardless. Enjoying myself

finished university and the only way I can think to reward myself is to re-enter Houellebecq's bleak insights on Western culture. Also because I love his sad decrepit old men characters addicted to jerking off

The most written by a woman book I've ever read . Extreme levels of girl and womanhood

paperback arrived today!!! so exciting. Big fan of Freedman's blog and enjoy his writing, very consumable. So far my thoughts are that the 2010s were such an irredeemable time for the UK and that the treasury department needs to be blown up into smithereens. amazing how much power the chancellor still has!! Rachel Reeves you need to be made unemployed!!!

no idea why I'm reading this

god this book is long. Reading for an essay on whether we are neo - feudal or surveillance capitalist era

love his relationship with his father. beautiful human touch

like an IDIOT I didn't know this contained imperialism so now I have a copy of just imperialism and Imperialism and the national question.

I like kind of don't like it that much

so nice to read something that's not in academic jargon

literally couldn't put it down after reading in short bursts!! It's feels a little more restrained than his other works, but also makes it more punchy. The stalker-y vibe reminds me of imperial bedroom, but a unique and almost supernatural doom added. Really enjoying this, my mom got me it for Christmas.
