5/16: finishing

...reading a novel while still lying in bed in the morning.  Turns out the novel--Apocalypse Baby by Virginie Despentes, translated by Sian Reynolds--took quite a turn in the final portion, making it an odd way to start the day.  But it got and kept me thinking for hours.  It's the second novel by Despentes that I've read this week, and I'm glad to have finally given her work a try after having put it on my possible to-read list a couple of years ago.
