Finally pushed through The Sound and the Fury. Definitely lived up to it's reputation for being difficult and inscrutable. Probably could have just stuck with the spark notes on this one, frankly.

I picked up Ovid's Metamorphoses on a whim and I'm finding it surprisingly fun and approachable. I've always had a healthy appreciation for western mythos, so this is a fun little dip back into that world for me, and I am also enjoying going back and reading some academic commentary once I finish a section. Makes me feel like I'm back in college in a good way.

I also started The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath and I'm really enjoying her prose so far. I am a little surprised, frankly, with how much I'm enjoying this one and how hard it is to put the book down. Maybe because I tend to select books I don't expect to like, but rather which I believe will be beneficial to read (which provides it's own form of enjoyment for me, rest assured).

Also trying to maintain momentum on my second read through of Infinite Jest. One of my favorites, even (especially?) the second time through.

Last year I read mostly nonfiction so I guess this year I've swung in the other direction as I've read almost exclusively fiction so far.

The Lion: Son of the Forest by Mike Brooks. I'm on a Warhammer 40K kick lately, so started this after I finished the Eisenhorn trilogy

Currently reading Blood of Elves.

I just finished Uprooted by Naomi Novik. Overall, I really enjoyed it.

The Cuckoo's Egg.........a nonfiction about catching a computer hacker in the 1980's. Great book if you are a techie.

Swann's Way by Marcel Proust

By far liked it. His style is surely captivating.
