I do not code/program, but I do read thousands of fiction pages annually. LLMs (Perplexity, specifically) have been my lifetime favorite book club member — I can ask anything.

However, I can't just say "on page 123..." I've found it's better to either provide the quote, or describe the context, and then ask how it relates to [another concept]. Or I'll say "at the end of chapter 6, Bob does X, then why Y?" (perhaps this is similar to asking a coding LLM to fix a specific function instead of a specific line?).

My favorite examples of this have been sitting with living human authors and discussing their books — usually to jaw-dropped creators, particularly to Unknowns.

Works for non-fiction, too (of course). But for all those books you didn't read in HS English classes, you can somewhat recreate all that class discussion your teachers always attempted to foster — at your own discretion/direction.
