![]() ![]() ![]() Wongin is also the author of John Dies at the End and This Book is Full of Spiders: Seriously Dude Don’t Touch It. It encourages binge reading like Netflix encourages binge watching: very, very effectively. I’m keeping my fingers crossed because this book would make a perfect series. Speaking of Netflix, Futuristic Violence & Fancy Suits has apparently been picked up as a Netflix show, which is awesome and maybe even true (the internet hasn’t said anything about it since last year). Like talking too much about the news, versus the latest episode of whatever on Netflix. But at least with non-fiction, I can tell myself that it’s worth annoying people. Actually, no, no one likes to hear about any books. People don’t like to hear about novels, unless they too are reading that novel. ![]() They leave you with smart sounding anecdotes, factoids and, if I’m lucky, some real, durable knowledge that makes a difference in my day to day decision making life. That’s partly because when I sit down and read for a while, I want to get up and feel like I’ve accomplished something. If you know me, or click through a few pages of the books I’ve read, you’ll notice that I don’t read too many novels. So, for the duration of this book review, I’m going to refer to him as Wongin. ![]() I think that might be his whole name, actually. Futuristic Violence & Fancy Suits is a novel by David Wong, AKA, Jason Pargin. ![]()
