 Book review 2024

Information 
Moby Dick - 7/10. Melville's eccentricities are there along with great peaks.
Hills like White Elephants - 2/10. absolute dimwit writing style thinking it's smart.
The Call of Cthulhu - 6/10. interesting enough, anti-climax ending.
Groundwork for the Metaphysic Of Morals - 4/10. Unclear arguments.
Beyond Good & Evil - 4/10. Probably the poorest and most tedious nietzsche book, but has good peaks.
Othello - 6.5/10. Not tempted to check out what else Shakespeare has.
Philosophical Investigations - -3/10. Dropped twice. Literally the Jordan Peterson of his time. (Usually unifnished books wouldn't be included but this one is disgustingly dumb).
Blood Meridian - 6.7/10. IMO the kid didn't sell out Glanton. Also this book deals with Hegel's philosophy (the judge even mentions the absolute directly) and I don't need to comment on that.
Integral Meditation - 2.5/10. Overall a decent message and has some useful advice but at the same time some things are really easy to debunk and it's poorly structured. When you say "The sky replaces the spot where your head once was." you're using a backup physical reality and are running into this fallacy because your metaphysics are so weak that stating them clearly would make you look like your head was just rammed in by an elephant.
Ion - 5.5/10. I don't know what the value in this book is but it's not the arguments socrates makes. The historical value and rhetorical value are what makes this agreeable.
King Pest - 5.5/10. Works well as a horror book.


If something is rated above a 4/10 you should read it, if it's rated 4/10 you should consider it but should take into account multiple factors and obviously if it's extremely poor and tedious you shouldn't read it, if a wheel was to be spun to decide which book I have to re-read (out of every book I've read in my life) and I had one veto I would spend that veto on beyond good and evil within an instant.
The most infamous and influential individual in the manosphere.
