Finally finished The Black Dahlia by James Ellroy. The first book in his LA Quartet (of which LA Confidential is the third novel) it tells a fictionalized version of the real-life murder of Elizabeth Short in 1947 and subsequent investigation of the killing. The cool thing is it introduces all the different sub-plots that you think are inconsequential but by the time you’re finished, they may not have been that inconsequential after all. And if anyone figures out who the killer is before the end of the thing, my hat’s off to them. Every time I thought I had it figured out something new would happen that would prove my theory wrong.

It’s a very dense read but very enjoyable. It’s the first thing of Ellroy’s I’ve read. It’s narrated in first-person and it took me a bit to learn all the characters but it didn’t hurt my enjoyment of it. I’m definitely in for the rest of it. On to the second book in the sequence: The Big Nowhere!

Finally got Revival from Stephen King

Im ready for the down beat finale everyone told bout.

[tragabigzanda]

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

It's a good book. Just enjoy the journey and not dwell on the destination.

I don't even recall how that one ends. I'd be keen to revisit. I remember loving all the Tak/mining victims stuff. Collie Entragian. But no recollection how it all wraps up in the end.

I liked how it started. Was wondering what in the hell is going on with this cop. It was really tense. Then

Spoiler: show

it turned out he was just possessed by this Tak thing

and it lost a bit of it's luster.

Still a good book.

I like it so far. Wolf in the White Van would be hard to top.
