Really want to read good omens.

I've started Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, and Talib's Black Swan.

[Prelate Diogenes Shandor]

Just finished reading Alice's Adventures In Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass. (I'd read parts of them before, but I'd never read them straight through from cover to cover)

Love them both. There's a BBC adaptation that stays very close and keeps a lot of the beautiful wordplay intact.

I picked up House of Leaves.

It's been a while since a book captured my interest to this degree.  I knew from the first page that this would be one I'd fall in love with, but it wasn't until this morning that I actually read a bit of it.  And I did nothing else but sit with this big beautiful book in the sun and nothing else mattered; I could piece together a quick lunch, the dishes could be done later.  This moment, with this book, is perfect and fleeting and reminded me so much of being a kid, the wonder books could bring.

I'd like to talk to you about this after your done, I wont say anything now because you are clearly enjoying it but I had a few things nag me about that book.

I'd like to discuss it as well, once you're done with it.

My first few thoughts here.

Now reading: Double Dexter by Jeff Lindsay.
Next on list: Re-reading of Joyce's Ulysses
Then I plan on re-reading the Mistborn trilogy.

Just finished As She Climbed Across the Table by Jonathan Lethem. It's closer to Chronic City than Gun With Occasional Music in style. I rather like that style.

Yeah, I was being an asshat.

It's about "the art of writing little".

Thank god, because I think my brain would explode.

Just finished Good Omens.

That's a great book.

Have you read The Thief of Time. Its another Pratchett book focusing heavily on the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (although, unlike Good Omens, Pratchett wrote it by himself and its set in Discworld)
