I'm on pg. 299. I wonder why i'm reading this. Does it get better or is it more of the same shit?

the one in that schedule ends on page 981 which is the same as this one. if you want to follow along exactly in step that would be the clear choice. the footnotes are at the back rather than at the bottom of the page though, which I'm finding a real pain.

What is your favorite meme novel? Mine's Infinite Jest.

I mean the actual ending, not the Year of Glad.

So IJ more or less was the death knell for post-modernism right?

2/3 of the way down page 741, so (not including the footnotes) i'm about 75-76% through the book
given the time I actually have I should be finished by the 19th or 20th

I don't think I've ever been more disappointed by a book in my entire life.
Complete drivel, not one sentence or phrase that has stuck with me.
I read it over about 2 weeks - 2 weeks I will never get back.
If this is the future of literature I am very worried.
