Anyone read Nic Pizzolatto´s Between here and the yellow sea?

Yeah, and I remember liking it more than Galveston. But neither has really stuck with me besides the feeling of, "Oh, these are nice."

I really liked Galveston. Gonna check out Between Here and The Yellow Sea

Yeah, I liked Galveston, too.

You think he should go back to books or stick with a 3rd season of TD/some form of tv?

I'd love to see something else on TV. I just think he needs time to make something. Don't rush it. I'd love a third season of TD once he has something. But I don't want one just to have one or to fill a quota or something.

Yeah, agreed. It's not a great idea to have him on a schedule

But if he's got more novels/stories in him, I'll take those too. He's a good writer. I'll take what I can get.

Got two nice copies of The Rules Of Attraction and The Informes from Bret Easton Ellis.

Thats all i need.

[Leatherhead]

Marvel's Secret Wars. This story would maybe be a good way to bring together the X-Men movie universe and the MCU.

I just picked up three books at my favorite used book store: Blood Meridian, The Crying of Lot 49, and The Trial. What should I read first? I've never read anything by Pynchon or Kafka.

If you want to read them together, I'd suggest to read them in chronological order.

You're talking about Blood Meridian?

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.

Blood Meridian is likely to make your brain explode, so leave that for last.

I meant release order, sorry. Trial-->Lot 49-->Blood Meridian.

Interesting. That's what I had planned on doing but for no real reason.

I'm in the camp that thinks it's an astonishing book, but I know not everyone feels that way. I'd say if you're not feeling it after ten pages, you could probably put it down.

Go the Harold Bloom route. That's what I'm doing.

Pick it up. Read 50 pages and throw it down in frustration and disgust.

Pick it up again some years later, read 100 pages, and again throw the book down in utter despair and anger.

Pick it up a third time, again, some years later. This time finish the book and call it the greatest American novel ever.

[epilogue]

So far, I have completed step one.
