"Neuromancer" is an acquired taste. You will get a bare minimum of exposition and either put it back on the shelf or let go, letting it take you along its dizzying course. The story pulses with neon action atop a subtle undercurrent of humanity. The beating heart is always there, however muted. "Neuromancer" is rewarding if you persevere, surrender and succumb to its world, which not all (understandably) will be willing to do.

#Two4Tuesday @TheSpineView

1. I guess average for someone my age who works a typical office job.

2. I really enjoy books that prove to be prescient about technology rather than describe what's happening now, so I'll say Hyperion and the Book of the New Sun/Long Sun series.

Was interested in this after reading that it was a major influence on the original Matrix movie. And like the first few times I saw The Matrix, I didn‘t grasp all of it, but I did understand it well enough that I wasn‘t totally lost! Definitely see how groundbreaking it was when it was published in 1984. I‘m glad I read it!

#bookspinbingo - #doublespin for this month
#pop24 - book with a 1-word title I had to look up in the dictionary

#ClassicLSFBC #ReadAway2024 I want to enjoy every book I read or listen to. But I‘ve listened to more than three hours and I‘m not enjoying it, it‘s not causing me to think about possibilities, the only thing it is doing is annoying me. So I‘m bailing.

RamsFan1963 Bailing seems to be the general consensus 7mo
CatLass007 @RamsFan1963 Really? Well the only way to discover if you like something is to give it a try. 7mo
