Reading period

As part of tomorrow's mid-term exam preparations, I have dedicated a significant amount of time to read Houellebecq's latest work as a way to fight the exam related stress.

I'm halfway through with the book and not planning to stop before finishing it entirely. After all, perseverance is the key to success.

If I had to describe Michel Houellebecq based on what I have so far read from his book, I would confidently say that he's one hell of a self-centered author. In fact I think he goes way beyond self-centrism. He redefines the entire ego-centrism and self-centrism concepts. However unlike many other mortal authors, he is actually good at it. I even dare to say that he deserves it. The way he describes and market himself in his book (In short, he's a mess!) is so good that you would actually want to go on amazon and buy his entire collection. Unfortunately that is not going to happen. Books cost a lot of money, and they would cost even more if you decide to ship them back home.
