Cassandra is on page 104 of 635 of Devices and Desires (Engineer Trilogy, #1)
Not bad so far, with a few delightfully brilliant phrases scattered throughout. Definitely a novel for spring-and-cog fetishists.

I think Han Ling-li is my new favorite character. In, like, anything.

I'm delighted by references to Orwell's Burmese Days! Literary references are almost never to books Cassandra's read. Very exciting. (Also: Breaking the Tongue is exceptional, so far at least.)

Ugh, and let us not forget that only over-emotional "bad" girls enjoy food. Thoughtful, intelligent young women are too ethereal to care much about what they eat. I promise this will be my last hate-update (uphate?) for a while.

Okay, I think I get it: smart, good girls aren't interested in boys and know flirting is frivolous and dangerous. Dim, self-absorbed girls like boys and flirting and totally have it coming when green-toothed men yank them into limousines. FFS. I am not being won over.

Oh damn it. Didn't realize this book is the third in a series. I hate it when that happens. Now I'm extremely grumpy.

Pretty good so far. Melodramatic but well-written.

Cassandra is reading Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Three Stories
So the answer to "will 'House of Flowers' irritate me less than Breakfast at Tiffany's" is no, it will not. Haven't quite finished it but blargh.

Cassandra is on page 101 of The Age of Reason: The Classic of American Deism
"It was needless, after this, to say that all was vanity and vexation of spirit; for it is impossible to derive happiness from the company of those whom we deprive happiness."

Puzzled by the author's hate-on for the teaching of "dead" languages.

This is great. Too bad the edition I'm reading has a distracting number of typos. Oh well!

Argh, it's really good. Wish I hadn't gone out of my way to spoil it. Thoroughly, thoroughly spoil it.

Figured it was finally time. Enjoying immensely so far, though this is one of those books you really wish you could read with a case of temporary cultural amnesia. What would it be like to read Dracula in a world without Counts Chocula, Van Count (ah! ah! ah!), etc?
