Still reading Sleeping Beauties by Stephen King. I am a little over 4/7th of the book (almost 400 pages out of 700 pages). The book wasn't what I thought it was. It isn't about the world after all the women fell asleep, it's about when they stated to fall asleep, with some supernatural stuff mixed in, which I think is present in most of King's books.

I am enjoying the book, and going to read more of his work. Maybe not right after this though.

What about you all? What are you guys reading?

Have a few on the go:

  • Finished Don Juan by Lord Byron. Very weird, and I was weirdly into it despite not know who he was making fun of most of the time.
  • Need to finish Fire Weather: Making of a Beast by John Vaillant in the next couple of days. Lots of people waiting on it at the library, lots left to go, but so far it's been great.
  • Nabbed Dead of Winter by Anders de la Motte for a phone read via Libby. It's, uh, not my favourite, but I feel kind of committed at this point.
  • I also started Ulysses by James Joyce. I'm on chapter 4 and have already established that I am in trouble.

Fire Weather looks interesting. How are you liking it?
