A random book from the shelves: Jerusalem by Alan Moore

[@saint999ish]

Best novel ever... Took me 1 year 2019-2021

[@anotherbibliophilereads]

Jerusalem is fantastic. I read part on hardcover and listened to part on audiobook.

[@CriminOllyBlog]

I’m daunted but excited

[@eriebeverly]

The audiobook is only 60 hours and you can just glaze over for long runs and not miss anything.

[@CriminOllyBlog]

LOL sounds like a fun time

My 2024 TBR, too

Looks annotation worthy! ☺️

[@CriminOllyBlog]

Ha! It does

[@feanor7080]

Moore is a brilliant writer. I really wanted to love this book, but it’s plotless meanderings and exhausting use of adjectives turned me off. Maybe I’ll give another shot once the holiday comes around.

[@CriminOllyBlog]

Yeah I am definitely nervous about reading it

Despite my love of Moore's comics, I have avoided his prose due to mostly middling reactions to it. 1300+ pages for something "meh" doesn't appeal

[@CriminOllyBlog]

It definitely seems to be a divisive book!

[@DDB168]

I've heard it described as Jesnoozelum - unfair ?

[@CriminOllyBlog]

LOL I haven't read it yet, but I am expecting it to be less fun than the Freak Bros

[@gabekarl82]

i have the US edition 3 Book collection

[@CriminOllyBlog]

It definitely feels worthy of being split into 3 books!

[@karinjohnstone6690]

Have you read it yet?

[@CriminOllyBlog]

I haven’t.

[@karinjohnstone6690]

Alan is an old friend of mine and I feel a bit ashamed that I haven’t either. But WE should !

[@CriminOllyBlog]

@@karinjohnstone6690 We should! But to be fair to us it is incredibly huge and intimidating.
