Have you read World War Z? If yes, how does Day by Day stack up?

A lot of people who have read both were disappointed with Day by Day based on the online reviews I've read.

It was very good. One of the stranger book I have ever read.

And **** Gravity's Rainbow, got about 15 pages in and realized I had no idea what the hell was going on and gave up. That is a tough read for my limited brain power.

Just finishing this up. What a great f*cking book! Lots of laughs, a ton of suspense, a few tears, and I can't wait for the movie!

It took me a few tries to get through it the first time. I feel like every sentence has to be read a couple of times in order to be understood properly.

If you have any interest in returning to it (you probably don't), I'd recommend reading some of pynchon's other stuff as training. It took me reading "The Crying of Lot 49", "Inherent Vice" and "V" for it really click.

Good idea, been thinking about it. Heard lot 49 is much more accessible.

What a blast of a read. If you are into video games and 80s pop culture give it a spin.

On to this now.
