I can't stop reading. . . .Machine Man


I love the author Max Barry (he's written Jennifer Government, Syrup and Company). His books are quick-reads, but I find them not only entertaining but insightful looks at the effects that corporations have on our lives

He just started an interesting project called Machine Man. Its his new book, but he is writing it in a very different way - he is writing a page a day, and then sharing that page with the readers via email. So, basically everyday you open your email and there is a new page in this book. Its an interesting way to read a book - and unlike all of those daily emails from Barack, I actually read these. His blog is also interesting and includes information about the process of writing in general and how writing this book is different than his other projects.

Anyway, I cant stop reading this new book and his comments about it. You can sign up to get the first 46 pages free, then its like 5 bucks or something to continue if you are enjoying. (Also, if you haven't read any of his other stuff, check out Jennifer Government - truly a great read).
