I have to disagree with Hedrigall about Altered Carbon, it was a bit unusual but quite good fun.

I'm a bit puzzled as well, as I had the completely opposite problem of finding it hard to put the book down.

XO til we overdose..
Recently I tried, after many years of meaning to do so, to read Gödel, Escher, Bach. I barely even made it through the loving introduction. I pretty much decided that the book wasn't worth my time when Hofstadter started whining about how he couldn't understand why people didn't recognize the brilliance of the book. Maybe it actually is a good book, but after reading Hofstadter's literary masturbation in the introduction I just wanted to punch him in the face.
