I'm halfway through Delillo's Underworld, and this is the first free time I've had for pleasure reading in a while. Although I'm a pomo fiend, picking another tome while I have so much other stuff waiting to be read makes me feel anxious, so I'm trying to remind myself to chill and enjoy it.

And there is a lot to enjoy, Delillo's prose is fantastic and he builds quite the immersive experience, it's just a slow burn sometimes.

I also just picked up The Structure of Scientific Revolutions yesterday, so I'm thinking maybe some non-fiction will be a nice break in pace.

Godspeed all of you that can read multiple books at a time, I struggle so much with that, but desperately wish I could retain as much as when it's just one thing one my plate.
