Wherein We Elect Our Favourite Novels of 2014

strong year. i'm reading the atticus lish right now and loving it. also enjoyed 'annihilation' (but couldn't make it through the second one in the series). voted for 'outline' though. maybe this is just me bc i feel like the reviews i've read didn't acknowledge its humour but i find her frequently hilarious

The only one I've read is "Wolf in White Van", but happy to vote for it.

This book absolutely haunted me because of the evocation of childhood damage and early rpgs.

I saw this negative review of WiWV a few days ago: http://adamcadre.ac/calendar/17/17471.html

i still like it

This reminded me I need to read "Universal Harvester".

It keep me reading, thinking, but seemed more diffuse than WWIWV, although---a lot of things are---deserves rereading--and even if I still don't get it overall, there will still be a lot of pleasures along the way, incl. sensuous--- eventually, I started having the sensation of walking around the contents of a silo, purchase constantly, minutely shifting (more Arthur Russell than Mountain Goats)---and then dang if there isn't a silo in there---and much more--

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.
