I'm home over winter break, feeling a little depressed, want to read a short novel to get my mind off of things. Any recommendations? I almost exclusively read non-fiction and my fiction list is filled with stuff like Blood Meridian and I'm not reading that.

>>	Anonymous Thu Dec 21 02:57:04 2017 No.10429998 Philip K Dick. Try "Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said" or "Ubik". They are fun and strange sci-fi stories that can be blown through in a few days at a leisurely pace, but exciting and strange enough you'll never expect where they're going.

>>	Anonymous Thu Dec 21 03:11:36 2017 No.10430027 >>10427526 'Whatever' is fairly short, light in tone, and ultimately uplifting. It's not a particularly challenging book either, perfect for winter break.
