Gotta return this copy to the library and buy a new one. Got the first 100 pages down and find them hilarious. Gotta return this copy to the library and buy a new one.

As one who couldn't even get through Wuthering Heights, I admit that I doubt my reading stamina. That being said, let's do this thing!

I just this minute tried to find that paperback and discovered that I must have given it away when I moved the last time. (I probably knew then that I would never read it.) But spurred on by the challenge - I've just downloaded the whole shebang into my Kindle.

This is one of my all time very favorite books which I consider to be excellent and also profound in addition to hilarious. Can't wait to finish what ever crappy books I'm currently reading so I can dig into IJ again as part of a vast internet community of love for DFW.

I'm very excited to use this book as something other than a coaster for the water on my nightstand and the object I vaguely wave towards when mentioning wheelchair assassins. Nice!

If you're about to read IJ out of a sense of obligation, you probably shouldn't bother. Read it because you're fascinated by the idea or because you already love it. Or at least spend the next couple of weeks reading Girl With Curious Hair, to get a feel for DFW's style. Lamar’s absolutely right.
