Well, yah. Don't do that shit. That's reading for sport, and we've all done it, but it is absolutely a waste of time.
As for Pynchon... I Fucking LOVE Inherent Vice. Hate the movie pretty much. Love the novel. The only other thing I've read is Gravity's Rainbow, long ago. I think it's a great book, but if I hadn't read it in my early 20s, I think I would have missed the moment a bit.
