The Book Thread

I read a book by Theodore Dreiser once, it was one of the most depressing books I think I’ve ever read…(An American Tragedy?).
I tried reading the first Dark Tower book, struggled to get into it.

Yeah, American Tragedy was in my first batch of the year. It was a bit of a slog.

I found the first Dark Tower book okay, but not a lot happened. The second one was much better and I’m definitely invested now and looking forward to the third.

Finished Vonnegut’s Player Piano. His first novel. An excellent parody of mid-twentieth century corporate life but a bit slow and disjointed as a read.

Also, reread Faulkner’s Pylon. Love that book.
