@daja57.bsky.socialPloughed my way to the end of 'House of Leaves' - a typographical tour de force - by Mark Z Danielewski. Wow! Have I decrypted the arcana and solved the mystery?

@maxpuffins.bsky.socialFlashlight by Susan Choi. Lots of praise and award nominations, but a little less engaging than I hoped for. Itβs a family/historical drama with a jolting twist halfway through (which improves things).

@daja57.bsky.social@maxpuffins.bsky.social Thank you for recommending 'The End of Everything' by M John Harrison (though I would have read him anyway, being a fan of his work). I think I enjoyed it; I was certainly impressed. Well weird!

@bevanthomas.bsky.social@daja57.bsky.socialI've just finished Booker longlisted 'Black Bag' by Luke Kennard, a frequently very funny and skewering satire on the themes of identity and masculinity (?).
