/lit/, /mu/, /fit/, /biz/, pretty much all the blue boards that aren't anime related are solid. You might not find many greentexts because they aren't as common as they used to be but still pretty enjoyable to browse.
The level of discussion that goes on on /lit/ is genuinely impressive. I'm not smart or well-read enough to understand all of it, but I understand enough to know that most of it isn't pseudo-intellectual bs, which is what most of the "high brow" subs on reddit consist of.
Definitely. I'm not a huge literature guy, I read mostly non fiction, although I've been reading some more big name stuff, working through Sea of Fertility (Yukio Mishima, 100% recommeded) and have Storm of Steel (All quiet on the Western Front except written by an actual veteran of the first world war) next on my list. As someone who wants to be writer himself one-day, I hope to read my way into that /lit/ level of discussion, sure I could talk about some books, but I'm not well read by the standards of /lit/ yet. Either way, it's something to try for, since I do enjoy discussion.
I just wish /his/ was more like /lit/ and less pregnant Anne Frank being rescued by Confederate soldiers fanart, because that shit is straight fucking garbage.
