Mason & Dixon by Thomas Pynchon
4.0
FINISHED!!! I am VICTORIOUS! Despite the ridiculous length of time that it took me to finish this, I really enjoyed it. It was strange, wacky, funny, confusing, brilliant, and in the end there was a perfect mix of nostalgia, sadness, and grief.
The only thing that I would really recommend is to not read it on a schedule. Do it when you're not watching a clock or trying desperately to finish. It's a book that should be explored rather than read. Unfortunately I focused on just continuing to turn the pages and keep reading and I think the experience suffered for it.
But it was still a really great experience :) I was hoping for a bit more info on the actual Mason-Dixon line but it was more about the partnership of the two men.
