Gondor Needs No King

Ben: I’ve gotten about 70 pages further into INSOMNIA tonight. it is my go-to distraction from familial interaction  

Me: Did the plot start happening yet?  

Ben: Not sure but I’m finding it rather enjoyable  

Me: Explain  

Ben: I feel like stephen is actually doing a good job with the supernatural bullshit in this one. Doing a good job of portraying a suffering character who can’t ever be sure that what’s happening to him isn’t just a slow descent into insanity  

Me: But they’re so old  

Ben: Also notable for the fact that this is the first old main character in the history of literature  

Me: Aragorn in lotr is like 600 years old  

Ben: Aragorn isn’t the main character you fuck

Me: Omg are you there right now?  

Ben: No but I will probably swing by in a bit. I am reading INSOMNIA  

Me: Keep an eye out for gay porn (as you are wont to do)  

Ben: Oh don't worry.
