@DisastroMan Absolute waste of a film title.

"Ge proves herself to be exceptionally capable at pulling readers into little moments, scrutinising, admonishing, and celebrating the parts of life that are all too easy to look over and ignore."

@DisastroMan Not sure if you've heard much of them, but Everything Everything does a lot of satirical stuff hidden behind catchy pop and rock.

@DisastroMan Not as far as I can tell and this came up in my for you scroll.

"A house locked away for 51 out of 52 weeks of the year, only one person allowed access in that brief window, the system controlled by a next level AI; yet there is a dead body needing to be examined."

@DisastroMan Some of the paragraphs are long, but he breaks up sections pretty regularly, sometimes multiple times a page. I think the only truly long stretches without a break are in the final 20-30 pages of the final part.

[Jamobo 🐶 @JamoboBorg]

@DisastroMan You should definitely try 2666 then, that's 900 pages of book critics getting into a tryst, a philosophy professor losing his mind, a lightweight boxing match, 100s of violent murders, and a really tall German boy just trying to enjoy his books while WW2 happens.

[Jamobo 🐶 @JamoboBorg]

@ashwxrya @itskhatereads Pynchon's an interesting one. Need to get round to some Christie at some point.

[Jamobo 🐶 @JamoboBorg]

@NotRealMusic Apparently the only one I voted for that's currently winning is Titanic Rising...

If I can't lick my finger to turn the page it's not real reading

[risa @TWICEyikes]

i get the audiobook debate, but how are some ppl saying that reading ebooks is not reading ???

[Jamobo 🐶 @JamoboBorg]

@DisastroMan Can't even tell if that's supposed to be Ep IV or Epi V.

[Jamobo 🐶 @JamoboBorg]

@teeassou Bruno Pernadas is obviously a rec. MNBB and BBP are both sides of Folk and Tiffany Day is a lot of fun!

I think you recced Yo La Tengo a while ago, but I listened to I Can Hear... which I still don't connect to. And Then Nothing... is much more my speed and much more consistent.

@jhendersonYT Haven't gotten to any of her novels yet, but Lispector is almost as good a short story writer as Borges.
