/r/books with its 3 million subscribers is really, really bad.

/r/literature is much smaller and therefore better. Way more interesting content, but still extremely entry-level though. And plagued with stereotypical redditisms (one of the top posts right now is Tao Lin translated to Latin).

Try looking for small genre-specific subreddits, like /r/printSF for science fiction books etc. More focused and insightful discussion seems strongly inversely correlated with subreddit size.

I'd be interested to know what the public consensus on Tao Lin is.
