It was very good. One of the stranger book I have ever read.

And **** Gravity's Rainbow, got about 15 pages in and realized I had no idea what the hell was going on and gave up. That is a tough read for my limited brain power.

Just finishing this up. What a great f*cking book! Lots of laughs, a ton of suspense, a few tears, and I can't wait for the movie!

It took me a few tries to get through it the first time. I feel like every sentence has to be read a couple of times in order to be understood properly.

If you have any interest in returning to it (you probably don't), I'd recommend reading some of pynchon's other stuff as training. It took me reading "The Crying of Lot 49", "Inherent Vice" and "V" for it really click.

Good idea, been thinking about it. Heard lot 49 is much more accessible.

What a blast of a read. If you are into video games and 80s pop culture give it a spin.

On to this now.

Red Dwarf: Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers by Grant Naylor

Definitely worthy to carry the Red Dwarf name. While it does mainly follow the plot of the first season, there's quite a bit more added such as how Lister wound up on the titular Red Dwarf mining ship. It's also quite a bit darker than the show, going a little more into detail of Lister's mental state after he finds out he's the last man alive.

If you're a fan of the show, I would highly recommend picking up the books.
