Finished The Scar this morning. I have a lot of thoughts. Mostly: "oh. My. God." What a brilliant book.

Read Looking for Alaska today too. It was okay. The language and writing in general was beautiful but I found the characters to be a bit of a turn-off (though the Colonel was pretty awesome). Not my favourite YA, but compared very favourably with The Disreputable History of Frankie-Landau Banks, which I truly loathed. This is a far superior (if also far from perfect) book on very, very similar themes.

Also found time to re-read Double Act and the Lottie Project out of nostalgia over the last couple of days. Thoughts are on my Goodreads (link in sig).

Now reading Snow Crash, about 80 pages in. So far, so weird.
