The Pale King by David Foster Wallace
4.0

DFW is uncanny in his ability to write humanity. While there wasn't much TO this story, really (it being unfinished), it was still so unabashedly human. Every character had his or her relatable stories and quirks, and I loved (almost) every moment of reading this book (the tax passages could get a little tedious). I enjoyed how the book was structured, too - I wish I knew more about tax law, so I could understand what each section heading referred to (and if it was anything significant). All in all, a very enjoyable read.
