Reading 6:05 pm
I’d like to report that I do wonderfully artistic and useful things when I’m not writing, but it just isn’t the case. However, I did finish The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway and A Man Without a Country by Kurt Vonnegut since I’ve last posted. Therefore, I have become a better person since then.
Both books were incredible readings and not surprisingly so. The Sun made me long for Europe, making me at times unbearable, but I sifted through it without much mishap. A Man was one of the more relatable books I’ve ever encountered, which to me seems perfectly natural. I’d recommend it to anyone, most especially those with a healthy sense of humor and a love of honesty. (Can you see now why I took such a liking to it?)
I shall be better still after Gatsby. Are you better today than yesterday?
