I usually don't use the site's tag about books I'm currently reading because (1) I generally read books pretty quickly, and (2) I am grammatically offended by that hyphen. Note to goodreads: you don't need it. It's wrong. The meaning is completely clear without it.
Okay, I'm a hyphen freak, but as a professional editor, I kind of have to be.
However, I am using this tag now because I'm reading REAMDE by Neal Stephenson. Fortunately on a Kindle. Or maybe unfortunately as my biceps could use work.
The last time I tried a Neal Stephenson book I kept interrupting it to read other books and ultimately got a very patchwork view of the book. I think. (CRyPTONOMICON). So this time: no diversions into sex&shopping novels or lighthearted murders.
