I ordered Yukio Mishima's “the sailor who fell from grace with the sea”, it arrived today

So I bought a couple of books for my birthday, which is upcoming and I'm wondering if anyone is currently reading anything of interest? I am currently reading "The Bohemian Grove fact and fiction" by Mark Dice Books I'll read after this (5 titles): "Blackshirts and reds" by Michael Parenti (second book I bought for my b-day) "Women's car DIY" by Caroline Lake "When the Irish Invaded Canada" by Christopher Klein "A Cruel and Shocking Act the secret history of the Kennedy Assassination" by Phillip Shenon "Auto repair for dummies" by Deanna Sclar

I'm almost finished with "Blackshirts and reds", and I have finished "The Bohemian Grove fact and fiction" a few weeks back. I think those were good birthday gifts I bought for myself.

good vibeo

Horror is probably my favorite genre of literature. I'd say more than half of the books I read and have read are horror. After seeing a few reviews and recommendations on the House of Leaves I was very intrigued.

House of Leaves is a very challenging read. The story follows the main character Johnny Truant who finds an incomplete manuscript written by a recently deceased man named Zampano. The manuscript is a documentary of a photojourn*list by the name of Will Navidson and his wife Karen who have purchased a house which they soon find is larger on the inside than the outside.

House of Leaves has footnotes. It has footnotes of footnotes and appendixes of footnotes and footnotes with appendixes. It has footnotes from both Zampano and Johnny Truant.

Its writing style is difficult to follow, often makes you turn the book upside down or on its side, and is overall kind of fricking boring. Don't get me wrong, it's a cool book. The concept is incredible and such a unique experience. Unfortunately, so often throughout this book, I found myself wishing it would stay on track and continue the main story of the Navidson Record (the storyline I found most interesting)

More than half of this book is about Johnny Truant slowly losing his mind as he compiles Zampanos manuscript, Truant's heavy drug abuse and s*x addiction, and chapters long mind numbingly boring descriptions of the meaning and origin of words by Zampano.

With that said, would I recommend a new reader altogether skip Johnny Truants storyline? I can't say that I would. It does round out the novel and serve a deeper meaning. Understanding Truants state of mind while he is compiling House of Leaves is essential to understanding the house in itself.

Overall I'd give the book an 8/10. I finished in a week and even with its boring parts I could not put it down. I would recommend anyone who enjoys literature read this book. This book is more of an experience than a story. Its ability to drag you in and immerse you is truly unmatched.

!bookworms Also bought some books on ebay to fill gaps that werent there

The fricking ketamine must be working bc I'm reading for pleasure again

It's basically about this one cave which is the fricking origin of Ebola and Marburg (basically b-word butt Ebola).

It talks about trying to find the fricking source of the fricking diseases, what they do to the fricking body, the fricking terrifying spread and trying to figure out what the fricking heck was fricking going on in Africa basically.

I read half the fricking book yesterday and will probably finish it today. It's an easy read/brain candy. Highly recommend if you want to get absorbed into a fricking book since Netflix is fricking shit these days.

I'm just a few dozens of pages from finishing “Maldita Guerra” by Francisco Doratioto, a book about the Paraguayan War which was the bloodiest inter-state war fought in South America. A war that also defined the development of the Brazilian military and its institutional role.

TLDR, the future is queer and you can go frick yourself. Dumb peasants actually believed they own the books they bought

!bookworms I'm thinking about reading “Confessions of a Mask” by Yukio Mishima, what are your thoughts on him and other Japanese authors? Personally I've never read a book by any Jap author so far (Ishiguro was born in Nagasaki but he's pretty much an Englishman through and through and his best book The Remains of the Day is the quintessential portray of British character).
