What are you reading in 2025?

That's the charm: it is always delightful when books are both thick and dense.

delightful its not the term I would use haha. I just hate thick books that don't have much too say, its a waste of time. Delightful is for me when a book is a dense snack. Deep in content, shallow in page number. A rare sight to see, but whenever I got one I feel I have found a white whale.

Both is best, that's what I said. Anathem is both. Johnathan Strange & Mr. Norrrell is both.

But big and fluffy is also fun. Small books have to be very good indeed to stand out in my mind, they go by too fast. So I will take a fluffy pulp read that is nice and thick that will stick around more than an hour. I am an extremely fast reader, so thick books are more impactfup than bite size ones.
