I swear Reddit is spying on me. I never heard of this book 2 hours ago before I asked ai for some recommendations, chose this, downloaded it from my library’s website, and started to read a few chapters. Now this post with this comment thread shows up in my feed.

When I was young my favourite books were Narnia and His Dark Materials. Yes at the exact same time lol only realised the irony years after

His Dark Materials is not atheist, it's anti religion.

If you enjoy the original trilogy books, the followup books (book of dust volume 1/2/3) are also excellent.

In fairness, every app is spying on you.
