Finished Summer Knight by Jim Butcher. Fourth book of The Dresden Files. Things keep getting worse, stakes keep getting higher, Harry keep going through hell. Same old, same old.
Currently Reading Sleeping Beauties by Stephen King and Owen King. It was recommended on reddit for books similar to the comic Y: The Last Man. I didn’t used to like Stephen King much before, but I can understand why. Book is 700 pages long, and first 100 or so pages were pretty much just a set up. I didn’t use to have patience for such slow books in my youth, though I am enjoying it now.
What about you guys? What have you been reading?
I don’t know - I was unfamiliar with Pynchon before starting Against the Day. I had a list of his books to look into: the choice of my first one was random.
It’s going unexpectedly well for me so far - but such things depend on the reader as much as on the book.
I’ve seen other people recommend The Crying a Lot 49 for that purpose though, probably because it’s much shorter.
Thanks for the info, will check it out.
