Working on a Long, Creepy Book

I'm presently in the midst of reading Drood by Dan Simmons, a nearly 800-page fictionalized account of the last years of Charles Dickens, and his obsession with a mysterious, nefarious figure. As narrated by Wilkie Collins.

So far, it's fantastic, but it may take me a little time to get through it, and I want to save some of it for my red-eye to Pittsburgh this weekend.

So, until next week...

  1. Have you read "The Professor and The Madman", about the creation of the OED? Great book!

  2. This post title is how I felt reading Breaking Dawn, but it was a different kind of creepy. You seem to read better books than I do.
