The Book Pirate

It’s over! This past school term has been brutal for me. Taking three English classes at a time (in addition to a foreign language) may not be the best idea for one’s mental health. I think I only got one book read in the past three months that wasn’t required for one of my classes. I started Slaughterhouse Five in January and finished it yesterday. Now I am on spring break. I hope to tackle Christopher Moore’s Fool and at least one other book. I also need to catch up on my book blogging because in case you haven’t noticed, content has been kind of lax as of late. So, until I have something worth wild to say, may I recommend you check out Machine Man. It is a project from Max Barry who currently is on my Top 5 Author’s list. Each one of his books (The Company, Syrup, Jennifer Government) are well worth reading again and again. Machine Man is Barry’s attempt to put out a story via the internet in short increments. I think it’s being released at one page a day. Bite sized fiction anyone?
