Just finished Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami. Very well written and emotionally frank, but kind of depressing at times. Or maybe it's just me.
Also, Four-ish as hell.
Tentative typing: ISFJ 6w5 or 9w1 (Sp/S[?]).

i've actually been using my kindle a lot lately.
not really to read books, but i love it for
catching up on my newspaper and magazine
subscriptions. just simply amazing to have
everything digitized and all in one place.
diggin it.
so i guess i've been reading a lot of op eds.
amazing what people half way across the
world complain about.every normal man must be tempted, at times,
to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag,
and begin slitting throats.

I've been rereading the Wheel of Time series. I'm halfway through the third book, The Dragon Reborn.
To be honest, rereading the series makes me impressed with just how much Jordan had planned out since book 1. Very subtle things you wouldn't get your first time reading through.Ti = 19 [][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]

Just finished No Easy Day.
About to start rereading the Wheel of Time series for like the 7th time in preparation for the new book."You will always be fond of me. I represent to you all the sins you never had the courage to commit."
Reason is, and ought only to be the slave of the passions, and can never pretend to any other office
than to serve and obey them. - David Hume

I am reading the poems of Arthur Rimbaud. And I know I can't write like Arthur if I write in the language of common sense, so I need to abandon my common sense and fall in love with the intrinsic beauty of language, just like Arthur.
