Thanks, I don't want to peek until I"m done.
Reading as an ebook from the library, fwiw.
EDIT: In general, unrealistic (to me) characters is one of my biggest literary turn-offs.
Barmymoo:
Oh, me too. I've read a couple of chapters of books with a promising plot and given up because the characters are so badly written that I just can't get engrossed in the story. It's a fairly crucial skill for writers.

So Gone Girl wound up having that kind of modern artificial/clever, everyone-has-a-hard-luck-story feel* that I abhor. Overall, well written and engrossing, but not for me.
Spent some time in urban fantasy. Butcher's Cold Days continued to strengthen my belief that the series has jumped the shark. Also, he is so, so screwed. Book essentially made things worse for him, not better, imo. Plus, been reading some Mercy Thompson stuff. Light and airy.
*I'm sure lit types have a term for it. I only studied 1.5 courses worth of lit in uni, so I'm ignorant.

Nick got me Rant by Palahniuk for my birthday! I started reading it last week and it is so twisted and disgusting and wonderful.
Thrillho:
Reading Who I Am by Pete Townsend.
IT'S A BARREL OF SHITTIN' LAUGHS
