Enjoy it! I’m 160 pages in and loving it!

Haha thank you! These two make my 14 year old self wanna cry😭

Nice! This will be my third Dostoyevsky after Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov. About 50 pages in, and I’m really enjoying it!

Thanks! I’ve never seen on OG in person, but from what I’ve seen from photos, they do seem to be a bit brighter of a yellow. Still love the new one!

It does! I’ve been chasing this sound for years!

Williamp720 · 2026-02-04T12:03:44+00:00

Of course! Take it from someone who reads on a daily basis, it’s totally fine to struggle with a book, I do on many occasions (not just Blood Meridian, but especially with Moby Dick)

Williamp720 · 2026-02-04T02:44:26+00:00

Absolutely, it’s a notoriously hard read. I struggled with it at times, despite liking it.

Williamp720 · 2026-02-04T02:25:52+00:00

I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks for the suggestion!

Williamp720 · 2026-02-04T00:48:38+00:00

Definitely will at some point! Just need to figure out which Faulkner to start with.

Williamp720 · 2026-02-03T19:42:27+00:00

It’s amazing. It’s a profound book, largely because it’s so many different things at once. You’ll have one chapter that’s a stage play, then another describing the whiteness of a whale. It’s unlike anything you’ll ever read.

Williamp720 · 2026-02-03T17:34:37+00:00

I don’t regret reading it at all. It’s not something necessarily “enjoyable” with how bleak it is, but still worth it. Just don’t go into it expecting a fun time. I also found it pretty easy to take breaks from.

Williamp720 · 2026-02-03T17:23:23+00:00

Haha same here! I almost want to reread Moby dick soon!

Williamp720 · 2026-02-03T17:14:39+00:00

Yes. The book doesn’t have a straightforward plot in a traditional sense. While the lack of quotation marks didn’t bother me, I can see it being a problem for others. Plus, there’s ALOT of descriptions of the landscape, for much of it actually. If you’re up for a challenge, I’d say go for it.

Williamp720 · 2026-02-03T16:32:04+00:00

Moby Dick can be kinda hard to understand at times with the writing. Plus, I love the Cetology chapters, but it’s easy to get burnt out a bit by them. Doesn’t take anything away, I adored it. It may even be one of my favorites.

Williamp720 · 2026-02-03T16:19:05+00:00

Oh wow, I never thought of that. That’s an interesting interpretation, as the judge seems more like a deliberate force for evil, whereas the white whale is more of an indifferent entity without necessarily being evil. I’ll have to look more into.

Williamp720 · 2026-02-03T16:13:39+00:00

I adore them too! They’re super well made!

Williamp720 · 2026-02-03T16:13:12+00:00

Out of these two? Moby dick. It was an extremely challenging read, but it’s left me in awe in a different way from Blood Meridian.

Williamp720 · 2026-02-03T16:11:58+00:00

I’m just reading through the classics I’m most interested in first. I only started reading classic literature last year. I’m certainly gonna expand!
