Books, books, and more books

So. Another weekend passed. Feels like those days go far too quickly, ugh. But at least I've gotten over my cold.

Reading Terry Pratchett's Strata, and enjoying it thoroughly. Had a little trouble following it at first, and I'm not sure if it's because I don't usually read science fiction, or if it's because of something to do with the novel

Did you ever read Hitchhiker's? I'm not much for scifi but I consider Adams to be kind of a Pratchett predecessor... I think the only other thing I've read that comes close to scifi would be Lovecraft stories, most of which are handily online =3=

Ah - yes, I've read Hitchhikers, though it was a long time ago. At the time, I was kind of lukewarm about it, but I think that's because everyone in my social circle hyped it up as the most Awesome Thing Ever -- so when I finally read it I was like, "That's all?", pff. Though it might be due for a re-read. I'd probably appreciate it more now.

ngl, I felt that way as well, it was underwhelming, but it grew on me. I still haven't gotten around to the rest of the series, though.
