First time since I think 2009. But third time overall.

Don't think I'm gonna finish this series. It's not very good.
I think now that I've read them all at least twice, I'm prepared to give a ranking:
Thus Spoke Zarathustra
Genealogy of Morales
The Anti-Christ
Ecce Homo
Untimely Meditations (grouped together)
Birth of Tragedy
The Gay Science
Beyond Good and Evil
The Dawn
Twilight of the Idols
Human, All Too Human
Nietzsche contra Wagner
The Case of Wagner
The Will to Power

This one is slightly better, but still crap. It's less Lovecraft and more Abrams/mystery box bullshit.

i started Fleishman is in Trouble, today. hoping to read it on our upcoming vacation. i've had it on my list of books to read for a while, and now i'd like to read it before watching the series. i've loaded up some other books on my kindle just in case i don't like it or i finish it.

Stella Maris is sooooo good. If this is the last McCarthy we ever get, it was a good end.
Think I'm gonna read it all today.

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.

second of two, but it's not really necessary to read both.

I wouldn't get too excited. it's mostly just a conversation about math and philosophy and lunacy.
