That's true crime for you. But, given that it's mostly written for a female audience with fantasies of kidnapping and rape, it doesn't have to be.

Good stuff.

I have that Necronomicon collection. It's huge and has pretty much all of his relevant stories, but the paper is that stupid recycled shit you get in Bibles.

SHERLOCK DIES

But not really because Arthur Conan Doyle is a sellout.

Last volume of Shelby Foote's The Civil War. I got the feeling he was being a little too generous to the South, but I enjoyed his retelling.

Also, I like to imagine all the generals as moe girls while I'm reading. This works surprisingly well.

I read Middlesex in high school. That must have been the last time.

A Complicated Kindness by Miriam Toews

Fairly good read, it lacks any kind of real climax and is rather uneventful but because of this its like reading a reflection of real life.
