Typically interested in Sci/Fi, for the most part, but read some fantasy, Greek Classics, the occasional biography if it is someone I care about. Science related non-fiction is good and Horror is good too.

Reading is for relaxation for me so I often don't read the most difficult fair. I do challenge myself from time to time.

I am looking for good narratives describing Hell as a literal place. (like The Inferno)

I am not Nurotipical.

Review of 'The cabin at the end of the world' on 'Goodreads'

Good god, I can not finish this thing! I got the audio version and the narrator is awful! She constantly sounds condescending! So I decided to try the old fashioned version and get it from the library. This is just a bad book! The characters are thin and not well developed. All of the personal stories are tacked on and not well thought out. The story changes on a whim to fit a lot of inconsistencies. Save yourself some time and frustration just move on to something better!
