Booky bookness

[bcholmes]

I'm about 3/4 of the way through The Carhullan Army, which was I picked up primarily because it won this year's Tiptree. I'm enjoying it, but I'm a bit fascinated by how little happens.

I'm a very lazy reader, and if a book can't hook me quickly, I often fail to get into it (I think it's interesting to contrast that with how patient I am as a movie watcher; I'll give a film a lot of time to build a mood or a story).

I bet you give a book at least an hour to build interest.
