Notes -
While I was flying I read Portnoy's Complaint, which was exactly as brilliant as people said it was, better even. But all the recommendations and mentions of it focused on the early scenes of his youth, while ignoring that the majority of the book is actually about his adulthood. Another case I think where a lot of reviewers or "knowers" don't actually read the whole book, they either read the first half and gave up or they just heard other people mention it and mention the same things.
I just started The Naked and the Dead which I'm having a little trouble with the language. Lots of minced oaths.
