The Books/Reading Thread

[Blurry_Dreams]

Maddox may be a complete penis, but he managed to say one great thing in his life. Old book I was skimming through before giving it away to a friend who'd probably find it a lot funnier than I do now.

I finished reading the Patrice McDonough mystery Murder By Lamplight. Pretty darn good mystery. You can check out my review HERE.

does spending time on other websites count as reading??

just kidding

If those websites have good substance, why not? Blogs, articles etc. There must be some reason it's not merely called the 'Books' thread.

I finally finished Douglas Murray's The Strange Death of Europe and am now reading Wounds by Nathan Ballingrud.

i was actually making the joke about how the people that are addicted to Facebook are idiots, using Twitter is just sending a mass-text to people you're never gonna meet f-2-f and how Instagram is like Twitter for people who can't read, and the people who were mindless TV addicts have become mindless YouTube addicts and how the content of Tik Tok has become so creepy that the "profesional YouTubers" are now actually complaining about "TikTokers" being bat-shit-crazy

Oh, I assumed you were talking about your own reading, foot fetish fanfics and the like.

Put YouTube stuff in the YouTube thread, or here's a readable link on the time travel paradox. Hypothesising or claiming to have solved something isn't the same as it actually being solved, but I suppose the web could do worse than to hype science like that...

Meanwhile I'm slowly reading Even Cowgirls Get the Blues by Tom Robbins.

foot fetish fanfics

ROFLMFAO
now i'm hearing the voice of Effie Trinket saying "don't touch me above the knee"

I finished reading Chris Pavone's THE ACCIDENT. And I just got an advance copy of Marc Cameron's DEAD LINE in the mail the other day.

Finished Wounds (very good, but not as good as his first collection) and am now reading more Murray: The Madness of Crowds.
