[quote=Dark Wind] All is quiet on the streets…Anyone reading/read The Goldfinch? Nearly half way through it now and I'm enjoying the hell out of it. Recommended to all! [/quote] No, but I've been reading The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Unless there's some kind of crazy twist at the end, I'm utterly convinced that the author wrote the entire novel in one, crazy, cocaine-filled night. Although I love his subtle sarcasm and sassiness, and I'm 50% sure he's British which only heightens its intellectual awesomeness. Also I'm very tired. Lol. EDIT: There was no twist. But there is a sequel. And a few more sequels to that one, if I'm not mistaken. Lovely. I feel oddly compelled to read them though. lol EDIT EDIT: Douglas Adams is a satirist. No wonder why his tone is so delightful.
