Still reading Sleeping Beauties by Stephen King. I am a little over 4/7th of the book (almost 400 pages out of 700 pages). The book wasn't what I thought it was. It isn't about the world after all the women fell asleep, it's about when they stated to fall asleep, with some supernatural stuff mixed in, which I think is present in most of King's books.

I am enjoying the book, and going to read more of his work. Maybe not right after this though.

What about you all? What are you guys reading?

Interesting list of books. Do share your opinion on The First Signs, once you have finished it. The topic sounds interesting.

I have read a little more now and realise that the author is progressing chronolically with the introduction of evidence for more complex symbols - and their potential indication of increasingly abstract thought.

Still a frustrating lack of detail on the actual types and variations of symbols themselves though. I will push on though.
