The stories are very wordy. I’m putting this book down now because I’m too lazy to parse them. I may or may not pick it up later.

Delany's prose is very dense. I'm normally a fast reader, but I can only manage 10 pages or so at a time.

I don't know if I care enough to finish this book. :/

I've never read this book before now. So why does it feel like a review?

I'm working my way up to it, really I am. Right now, though, it feels like the literary equivalent of taking your medicine.

I want to like this book more than I do. It has some wonderfully gonzo moments in it. Mostly, though, I'm sick of the toilet humor, dick jokes, and female characters that are nothing more than another set of boobs. Clearly I am not this book's target audience.

Ugh. I'm not reading any more of this. Who would have thought that a book with true crime, history, and sociological commentary could be so very boring?
