This book really demands your full attention; perhaps this is why I’m not reading as much as I’d like. Maybe this is the right way to enjoy it too though - both in bits and in rapturous Reading sessions.
Honestly, I would love to talk to Hal. I‘m still not convinced on the whole tennis thing but I do love an etymology nerd.
Also the plot is *kinda* kicking in. I wonder if we‘ll see more action.

some initial thoughts:
it‘s really unlike any book I’ve ever read. There‘s so many characters, so many deep dives into tangential topics and exhausting descriptions of various facilities and feelings and events. It is frustrating at times, but I do get a chuckle out of it quite often. So far I am pretty motivated to continue.
Also the whole videophony affair mentioned is actually really really prescient I think
