Why doesn't my year-in-review look like others' do? It's certainly little fun. (lemmy.world)

Right, I'm a masochist neck-deep in figuring out who, what, and why. Except for Wings of Fire; that's my connection to my young'un.

Starship Troopers is perhaps one of the worst books I’ve ever read.

Infinite Jest is secular scripture for the modern age, and it was immediately my second favorite book OAT, right behind Moby Dick.

Not pictured is the Brothers Karamazov, which I finished right after the turn of the new year. TBK was lovely; I really enjoyed the theology and unique culture explored in it.
