    Ice - Anna Kavan. Finally watched the new charlie kaufman, and there's a heavy reference to this book, and I dug the movie so I picked it up. Good vibe so far.

    Goedel Escher Bach - Doug Hofstadter. Been meaning to finish this for years; hopefully I will soon.

      curious how this reads. I really liked it when I read it in high school but I kind of don't trust my tastes from back then.

        not as thought provoking as when you're first introduced to/exploring the discussed ideas. but it's an easy/fun/digestible foray into those ideas, and it's just like a pretty cool opus -- like, you can see the craft and love and thoughtfulness that went into it.
