    Neuromancer goes crazy

    Neuromancer goes crazy

    I was shocked man, I read Snow Crash a long time ago and Neuromancer has the same status as a foundation of cyberpunk but Neuromance is a faaaaar better book. The characters are amazing and all feel more grounded than Snow Crash

    I read a bit less this year compared to last year, mainly because I think I've just been busier and didn't set a numerical goal. 54 last year and only 36 this year (I'll probably get to like 38) but my average book length went from 250 to 310

    read a lot of great fiction, still want to get more into non-fiction and the fiction classics for next year

    here's my top 10

    1. the savage detectives by roberto bolaño
    2. in the distance by hernan diaz
    3. a fine balance by rohinton mistry
    4. the goldfinch by donna tartt
    5. the passenger by cormac mccarthy
    6. caste by isabel wilkerson
    7. heat 2 by michael mann & meg gardiner
    8. indian horse by richard wagamese
    9. the sirens of titan by kurt vonnegut
    10. open veins of latin america by eduardo galeano

    I read 40 books and havent been reading for a month now. Need to pick it up again.

    1. My Struggle(2009-2011) - Karl Ove Knausgård.
    2. The Idiot(1868) - Fjodor Dostoyevsky
    3. The Metamorphosis(1915) - Franz Kafka
    4. Hunger(1890) - Knut Hamsun
    5. Bartleby(1853) - Herman Melville

    Read all 6 books of My Struggle in 2 months, absolutely loved it, I was blown away with the way he composed and the writing of these novels. I was completely obsessed with it and it made Knausgård one of my favourite writers instantly.

    Norwegians huh?

    How was the passenger? Reading No Country rn

    thought I responded to this

    The Passenger was excellent. story wasn't very linear but the character was memorable and it captured a vibe perfectly

    still got a lot of McCarthy to read but I really enjoyed The Passenger, tho Stella Maris was a bit of a miss for me. if you liked No Country you'll probably like The Passenger too, I strongly recommend it
