Mythos

It was an interesting read. Definitely different from what I've read before. It's not for everyone. Read it if you like James Wood or are just really bored.

Queena Li

Only read bits and pieces about the authors I had read or recognized. Pretty proud of myself for being able to do that guilt-free(along with recently abandoning a terrible book). I liked the parts about Marilynne Robinson and Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go.
