Reading books by great authors, especially dead ones, is one of the coolest ways any of us will ever get to understand some of the world’s most original minds. Therefore, we do it; we read so that we can experience multiple lifetimes and adventures outside the realm of what is practical. It’s therapeutic- reading is a true form of meditation, storytelling in general. We define experiences by the stories we tell ourselves and others. Being able to tell a good story can potentially affect millions, for good or bad. That’s fucking powerful. It’s more powerful than money, sex or fame- even though some …
Earlier this year, I read Blake Crouch’s novel Dark Matter for the first time. A friend of mine had said it was the best book ever blah blah blah.

I’m pretty sure a sports-addicted, sunlight avoiding, Stella Cidre guzzling Lord Ruthven Is living next door to me (just a very ill-conceived reference to John William Polidori’s The Vampyre, forgive me).

Earlier this year, I read Blake Crouch’s novel Dark Matter for the first time. A friend of mine had said it was the best book ever blah blah blah. I’d only heard of Blake Crouch because of the Wayward Pines Trilogy being adapted into a Netflix show. Dark Matter, however, blew my fricking cake hole, to put it politely.

Upon completion, I loaned it to a different …
