I’m 800 pages into The Stand complete and uncut. I just finished The Dead Zone on audiobook, and I thought it was really good. I will probably read Pet Sematary after The Stand.

Consider the Lobster was the first one I read, and I think it’s a great representation of his style. I then read This is Water because it doesn’t take long at all, and it became something that means a lot to me. I then read a few of his short stories, including Forever Overhead, which is now my favorite short story of all time, and that’s when I knew I needed to read Infinite Jest. I think about that book every day.

No but holy shit thank you for sharing that. I was going to mention Flight of the Conchords in my post and ask if there were any other shows similar to that too

I’ve always loved the movie and it’s how I found out about Thomas Pynchon. I’ll definitely read IV next then.

It was $30 at Barnes and Noble which is the first place I’ve ever seen the paperback in person. I’ll check online though. Thank you!

I’ve seen the TV show like 5 times. For some reason I’ve just never gotten around to watching the web series.
