God that book made me cry.

Finished Kinky on the train, moved onto Howl's Moving Castle which is pretty good so far, even if the narration is a little brusque.

Onto a couple of Enquirers

Onto a couple of Enquirers, week before and last weeks, Enquirer has changed format and dont like it as much anymore. Its like The Globe is the new Enquirer and The Enquirer the old Star mag before it shrunk and went glossy about the same time Star Jones did.
Im not too far in and usually read the back few pages first in The Enquirer. Im on a story about Brit going back to K-Fed.

I'm about 1/4 of the way through House Of Leaves by Mark Danielewski. Not a terribly casual read, but fascinating nonetheless. I think I read somewhere that the sole intention of the book was to be a "fuck you" to literary analysis. I can see why.

I'm starting Ulysses again.

Maybe I'm old enough to understand it / make sense of it this time?
