EDIT: Just finished a Michael Chabon book about comic books. Had scope, almost like a Steinbeck novel.

Aggressively double-posting because no one /reads/ anymore:
Some Louis L'amour stuff. Inherent Vice. Finished The Evolution of Physics. Starting The Damned Human Race by Mark Twain. Bought that one James Joyce book but won't start it for a while. Also bought The Winter of Our Discontent.

This is not actually true. I've done exactly the same thing about seventy times, and it did, in fact, get boring a while ago.wayofn wrote:harry potter!!!

Recently I had to come up with a list of books to order to read on a trip I'm going on soon, so I came to this thread, of course, for advice. I saw and ordered House of Leaves solely on the basis that Yahoozy was reading it. The books arrived today. And it turns out this will be my first "Original of Laura"-style novel (scraps of writing with unique layout). I'm skeptical about such a format, but I'll give the author more than full benefit of doubt and try my best to follow as long as I can. I also bought The Waves, by Virginia Woolf.
My most recent read was Narcissus and Goldmund, which I read entirely in Albania and quite enjoyed, even though I still disapprove of Goldmund and his superficiality and thickheadedness. I tried to read Wuthering Heights, but I got about 100 pages through before I was disgusted at the number of characters and the complexity of all the events and stopped reading. I can follow Tolstoy, which everyone else complains about, but I don't have a clue who *anyone* is in Wuthering Heights, and the prose just isn't high-quality enough to suggest that it would be worthwhile for me to find out.
Oh, and I read Fahrenheit 451 over Christmas, and loved it. It was one of the best books I've ever read.

I've been really busy lately but I managed to read this awful compilation of new Sherlock Holmes short stories by people like Stephen King. Actually, I saw King's name on the cover and picked it up on that basis, since I dig the Holmesian universe. He wrote a single five-page story and the rest are really stupid/creepy.
One's about Cthulhu, and most of the rest are about aliens.

Didn't Neil Gaiman already do that? A Study in Emerald? Or maybe I'm getting confused with the other Cthulhu stories he did.flagmyidol wrote:One's about Cthulhu, and most of the rest are about aliens.
