Think I’m gonna start out with some Cormac McCarthy stuff. That seems right up my alley. Also interested in religion/spirituality/philosophy. Haven’t read in ages so I’m open to pretty much anything that’ll get me back into it.

Read “A Music Lesson” by Victor Wooten

You read the Passenger by McCarthy yet?

Nope, will definitely add it to my list.

I loved it, def download that and its companion piece Stella Maris. Passenger honestly might be my favorite McCarthy

some lenin texts are on my ebook at all times so i dont get bored on a trip
