Über meine Bibliothek

A Mistake:

I believe I made a mistake c. 2010 of trying to track movies, music, individual comics, video games and even board games on here, so there's a bit of a mess in how my library is organised. I don't at all post movies*, music†, or board games‡ anymore. My comics tracking is perpetually far behind, and my video game tracking not much better. Sad to feel that even my book tracking is starting to lag behind.

* Curse myself for falling behind! Wish I didn't. What are my favourite films? I have no idea anymore. Don't think I've updated it since roughly 2014.

† Barely even listen to music anymore except as background noise, tbqh.

‡ There's BGG for that.

  3. Inch towards postmodernism, age 16: Joseph Heller, Ken Kesey, Neal Stephenson, Robert Anton Wilson
  4. Fully embrace being a self-absorbed knob, age 17 to 23: John Barth, Richard Brautigan, Don DeLillo, Dave Eggers, Bret Easton Ellis, William Faulkner, Jack Kerouac, Cormac McCarthy, John McPhee, Thomas Pynchon, David Quammen, Robert M. Sapolsky, David Foster Wallace, Walt Whitman
  5. Spotting the cracks, age 24 - 28: Kathy Acker, Alfred Bester, Mike Carey, Rachel Carson, William Eastlake, Steve Erickson, Neil Gaiman, Russell Hoban, Sheldon J. Pacotti, Marilynne Robinson, Virginia Woolf
  6. Just enjoying what is enjoyable (with a touch of transgression), age 29 to today: James S.A. Corey, Neil Gaiman, Karen Joy Fowler, Stephen King, Madeline Miller, Annalee Newitz, Alice Sheldon / James Tiptree Jr.
