Just read Kane Vol. 4: The Thirty-Ninth. Another great installment of Paul Grist’s police procedural, possibly the only straight police story in comics.

Also read The Exterminators Vol.1 : Bug Brothers. A comic about exterminators, genetically mutated cockroaches, and a global conspiracy. A lot better than I’d expected it to be.

I'm diving into something new tonight. Could the Master and Margarita, The Talented Mr. Ripley, or some Michael Houellebecq. We'll see.

Well, I liked The Other Boleyn Girl enough, though it seems to have somewhat less to do with reality than Gregory may pretend...;) The timeline is definitely off on some things, from what I can gather. Either way, an entertaining read so I am reading The Boleyn Inheritance now.

East of Eden is FAR more entertaining actually, there is so much going on in that novel, and the characters are so very complex. I also think Steinbeck created just about the perfect example of a sociopath iin this novel. Steinbeck definitely did approach his characters in a different way here.

Makes sense.
It's not that I felt a kind of disconnect.
It just wasn't that good in my opinion.

I'm actually looking forward to reading East of Eden, but I have to order it.
I can't find it anywhere.

Ironweed, by William Kennedy - About homeless alcoholics in 1930s Albany, NY. About as enjoyable as it sounds.

I enjoyed The Fog and found this (boot sales rock), just started reading it. Interesting so far.
