It's summer, long days for reading cool books.

(If you're reading theory, maybe also hit us up with a cool quote you've read lately if there's something poetic that sticks out!)

We don't even have a local library anymore, so most of my reading is done through digital means. Here are some useful sites to get you started:

Introduction to Socialist Thought Link directory of various sites, podcasts and videos introducing socialist theory, as well as information about leftist bookstores and zines.
Marxists Internet Archive For general Marxist theory and works.
The Anarchist Library For anarchist and anti-fascist texts.
Red Sails For Marxist-Leninist texts.
The Michael Parenti Political Archive Collection of Michael Parenti's articles, also includes information about books he's published.
CURRICULUM OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF MARXISM-LENINISM PART 1 The Worldview and Philosophical Methodology of Marxism-Leninism Vietnamese textbook on Dialectical Materialism, translated by Luna Nyugen (aka Luna Oi!). A physical copy of the book can also be bought through their website.

Reading the communist manifesto is kinda neat, it gives a lot of vocabulary and while some is outdated (Capital is published decades later for example), it still is a nice fast read.
