The question of who we would be without societal constructs is very interesting to me. I wonder if we would be anyone if we spent our entire lives alone. Also, if that library were closer to me, I would be there every day lol!
I so need to read more. If I had to start with one of these 3 the gaming book sounds the most interesting, though I'm the same as you with no experience/interest in the gaming world. ha ha, but as I say that, I realize I'm building out a whole game in the form of an online community space, which I'm really into, so I guess that's not true! (maybe I should read this.)
I'm sure you will enjoy it, Rick! I want to read new genres during 2025. I rarely read outside of literary fiction, but when I have, I've loved those books. And you are right; maybe there's no big difference between building a game and a community like yours.

The book touches on that at the end: Are we "someone" if we spend our whole lives alone? Maybe you will enjoy it.
Sadly, Librería Antártica is a bookshop and not a library. So there's no space to sit and read :( Thank you for your comment, Nathanael!
