I'm working my way through some of the great literature of the 19th century, which over the last year has included Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice, Count of Monte Cristo.
Ivanhoe, this story of Saxons vs Normans, knights, and high adventure, has been an unexpected pleasure.

omg I hadn’t read in years and all of a sudden I listened to this audiobook(amazing amazing voice actor) and have been reading ever since-I definitely recommend. /a man wakes up in a spaceship with no memory of how he got there…/
OR
The Count of Monte Cristo by Dumas
if you’re feeling more historical-it’s very long but the revenge/romance/drama is unmatched and it kept me interested

Lots of fun, weirdly the first time I read a piece of classic literature where a knight literally slays a dragon.

this is worthy of celebration: the lack of video—autoplay video, noisy inane video, panicky video, algorithmic, dumb video, rabbit hole video, any video—on pi.fyi is a good thing

this is going to hurt — A LOT — but it's getting to the point where there's no other option
