So, I started reading Moby Peepee, and I didn’t expect this book would be so funny. I’m currently on chapter 13, and up to this point Ishmael and Queequeg had so many “no homo” moments. Can’t wait for the Captain Ahab chapters.
I’ve also finished “It” by Stephen King. It was my first King book, and god, I didn’t expected for it to be 50% filler, so many pointless and endless backstories of side characters that never show up again, plus the creepy child gangbang near the end had some “50 shades of Grey” tier writing. A friend of mine recommended me “The Shining” but l’m not quite sure anymore.
What do you guys recommend?

Trying to get back into The Journey to the West.
I read the first volume and a half a while ago, but I ended up dropping off. Something about the length, the episodic structure, and a general lack of a cultural literacy on my part--particularly surrounding the many references to eastern spirituality--made it hard to get through. But that's kinda what I signed up for when I decided to read something so outside my own culture so .

My least favorite is the spoiler paragraph in the beginning of each chapter. I hate the editor for not shoving that into the end of each chapter.
