This thread is for discussion of books. Books you're reading, books you've read, books you're interested in, etc.
--Tom Clancy is lame--


But anyways. I'm currently reading Demons by Fyodor Dostoevsky. It's interesting, but I'm having difficulty getting into it, partially because of school, and partially because the month before I started it, I had just finished the Dark Tower series.

I've worked my way through Dubliners, The haunting of Hill House, the Throne of Glass books, the Daevabad trilogy, and the Neapolitan Quartet over the last year or two. Right now I'm digging in to Thomas Ligotti's Teatro Grottesco anthology and I'm really loving this shit. When I started it I expected it to be a new take on Lovecraft but it's closer to Kafka.
