The purpose of this market is to solicit reading recommendations. You can submit novels, biographies, short stories (and at least for now, even essays and articles). Typically the shorter the work, the more likely I'll give it a try, but I probably will also be more willing to drop it.
Earlier iteration of this question in https://manifold.markets/TonyGao/what-books-will-i-enjoy-reading, but it costs too much to add options in a Plus market.
As with that market, resolves between 50-100% for all completed books based on enjoyment. I will resolve all books I have already read to the best of my memory. Dropped books resolve between 0-50% based on enjoyment (resubmission allowed).
That market includes a comment with a list of books I have previously enjoyed, which would all be rated over 90% in a market like this: https://manifold.markets/TonyGao/what-books-will-i-enjoy-reading#n5kyslnnl0g.
I typically read at least one book per month and occasionally will blitz through a couple books at a time. I will try to notify if and when I start a book on the list (although I will probably forget), and when I complete a book I will give a quick review with my thoughts which justify the score given. I will not bet on this market myself.
@TonyGao Nice and quick little read, but surprising how superficially it covers things given the rave reviews for it.
@TonyGao Reminds me a lot of Bryan Caplan's advice to marry a woman with low neuroticism. https://www.betonit.ai/p/shes-the-one. The protagonist of The Lying Life of Adults also seems quite anxiety-ridden, although I don't remember the characters of the Neapolitan Novels being quite so extra. Perhaps this is because I read it when I was younger (and more autistic), or maybe that's why those have so much broader appeal.
