Last night, I was hanging out with a much younger friend. She told me "Welcome to the Black Parade" by MCR was one of the anthems of her generation. She then asked mine, to which I responded "Paradise City" or "Sweet Child o' Mine" by GNR or "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by Nirvana.

@TheSurrealAri Maybe "The Necklace" by Guy de Maupassant. Not sure when it is actually set, but supposedly late 1800s.

In many respects, 2022 has been a good year for me, but I have read too little. In forging good habits for '23, I started "Conan: Blood of the Serpent" by S.M. Stirling, and it's off to a solid start. My favorite line so far: "The greatest of heroes could still die of diarrhea." https://t.co/lKjPB1JE1E

@DanFitzWrites I suppose you have already read @LordGrimdark. If not, his work might qualify, though it is hard sometimes to tell who the heroes are. I also like the Red Rising books by Pierce Brown and the Gentlemen Bastards series by Scott Lynch.
