Drinking, a Love Story (Knapp)

Currently reading this Caroline Knapp classic...feeling conflicted about the place of memoir in the industry. Voyeuristic and triggered...I love reading this kind of crap. Just gearing up for Infinite Jest.

reading slips

I'm in the middle of reading a few books, and I've hit that place where not one of them has been able to make me commit...

Knut Hamson's Hunger, Jonathon Keat's The Book of the UnknownTales of the 36, Steven Millhauser's Dangerous Laughter...

I'm starting to feel that its me, that I'm having trouble with my attention, and willingness to just butch up and let one of these books in. Either that or I'm lazy and too busy staring slack-jawed at all the beautifully cramping reality television...at least I have managed to not get on face book.
But that is another post for another day.
