Reading socially is just so much better than reading alone.

There was no appetite for bread when I asked, so I welcome other suggestions. Highly-upvoted comments in the thread will be bookclubbed. Some suggestions that're on my radar:

David Graeber – Fragments of an Anarchist Anthropology (100 pages)
Cockshott – Towards A New Socialism (199 pages)
Hannah Arendt – The Origins of Totalitarianism
Amílcar Cabral, Resistance and Decolonisation (205 pages)
Fanon – The Wretched of the Earth (251 pages)
Bread Is the Devil: Win the Weight Loss Battle by Taking Control of Your Diet Demons by Heather Bauer and Kathy Matthews

huey-wut

My recs are:

Walter Rodney - Decolonial Marxism
Domenico Losurdo - Liberalism: A Counter-History
The new double issue of Monthly Review on degrowth
Andreas Malm - Corona, Climate and Constant Emergency: War Communism in the 21st Century
David Hilliard - The Black Panther Party Service to the People Programs
George Jackson - Blood in my Eye

I would also be interested in rereading Wretched of the Earth
