Thanks. The feedback on this one has been humbling.

My favorite Stephenson book is probably still Cryptonomicon, which is one I've read multiple times over the years, despite it's length. I get sucked right into it every time.

I just finished the 4th book, The Silent Army, in James Moore's Seven Forges Series. There was lots I liked about the series, but ultimately I was unsatisfied. Good writing, but it just didn't click for me. Up next, Ben Winters' Edgar winning, Last Policeman, the first in a trilogy of detective novels set in a pre-apocalyptic United States.

Just finished Snow Crash.
From my Goodreads review:
I’m only giving this book three stars because I enjoyed the first third. There is still the temptation to only give it two.
The second third was almost entirely a history of religion and trying to relate language to a biological virus.
The final third was complete and utter ridiculousness. It reminded me quite a bit of the first two books of the John Dies at the End trilogy. Ridiculous for the sake of being ridiculous. I enjoyed the first one. Barely tolerated the second one. And never read the third. Pretty much like this.
I’m worried after reading this because a few of Stephenson’s other books come highly recommended to me. But if they’re like this, then those will be a hard pass.
