2024.Book37 - Counterweight (Djuna)

 Dense, good buildup, not much payoff.

2024.Book36 - Starter Villain (Scalzi)

 Enjoyable, fun. Angry dolphins.

2024.Book35 - The Cunning Man (Davies)

Enjoyable characters, no intense plot.

2024.Book34 - Sophie's World

 Interesting history, mediocre frame tape

2024.Book33 - The Unaccountability Machine (Davies)

 High-level

2024.Book32 - House on Vesper Sands (O'Donnell)

 Pretty good. More straightforward than "Maker of Swans", with entertaining characters.

2024.Book31 - Angelica's Smile (Camilleri)

 Another entertaining story with the Vigata police

2024.Book 30 - The Comforts of Madness (Sayer)

 Waiting for an explanation that never comes, seems appropriate

2024.Book 29 - After E

 Pretty good, really depends on community though

2024.Book28 - The Scarlet Letter (Hawthorne)

 Pretty good, strange ending.

2024.Book27 - The Russia House (LeCarre)

 Solid spy novel.

2024.Book26 - After Claude (Owens)

Fairly funny, weird ending.

2024.Book25 - Roland in Moonlight (Hart)

 Baffling and intriguing, insightful and wrong. Excellent book.

What is the purpose of materialism? What am I protecting myself from?

Aristotelian causes

Seeing with rods and cones (and brain?) or spirit? Smelling?

Atman is brahma

2024.Book24 - Treasure Hunt (Camilleri)

 Good as usual, but jarring contrast between comedy and horror.

2024.Book23 - North Woods (Mason)

 Very good history of a place. Good level of mysticism.

2024.Book 22 - The Golden Enclaves (Novik)

 Very good finale. Lots going on, emotional "stay"

2024.Book21 - Heavy Weather (Wodehouse)

 Excellent humour. Wodehouse is consistently great.

2024.Book20 - The DaVinci Code (Brown)

Good from a thriller perspective, but historically and religiously preposterous

2024.Book19 - All the Sinners Bleed (Cosby)

 Pretty good. Interesting characters, OK writing. Hard to keep track of everybody.

2024.Book18 - The Dance of the Seagull (Camilleri)

 Great how Camilleri works in such psychological weirdness into straight-ahead mysteries.
