Currently reading (or last read)?

Spent the last few days ogling (not reading) this collection of Cormac McCarthy's 90s books (his so-called "Border Trilogy")... still haven't opened the damn thing. Last thing I read to completion, about a month or two ago, was a short story, The Specialty of the House by Stanley Ellin.
Oh i have the border trilogy too, got it from work for like 15.99?
 
Slowly making my way through the Complete Chronicles of Conan. It’s extremely good, exciting, scary and fun.
Last story I read was Tower of the Elephant. It wasn’t as good as the one before but still stellar.

The book is gigantic, black monolith of a tome, so it feels like a real activity to pull it out for a reading session. I have a similar version of the Dune trilogy but I haven’t gotten to that yet.

i recently read Legends of Localization: Earthbound. it's a really great read about all of the work that went into the localization of Mother 2/Earthbound, and it kinda blew me away to find out JUST how much extra effort they went through to keep the original intent of the script. they apparently had to reprogram the entire text display system to get it to not display in Monospace, just because they felt it would keep the "natural speech" style the original dialog had.
 
currently reading the collection "Irish Fairy and Folk Tales" gathered/edited by Yeats, alongside a reread of Junji Ito's Uzumaki.
 
Finished: Le Comte de Monte-Cristo.
Dropped: Les Misérables, War and Peace, a book about greek mythology.
I have pretty hard time reading, due to memory issues and focus.
 
Eleanor Rigby (novel) - Wikipedia


this stupid novel, Eleanor Rigby (yes, the Beatles song) by Douglas Coupland

this book has been a journey as what I originally thought it was turned out to be something I didn't expect, so that is where I'm at with this
