. The writing and detail of Wallace's story are extraordinary, so much so that my brain hurts and I can only take it in small doses. And right now what I want is a book, a little dystopic apocalyptic non-fiction, that I can tear through without much thought. Something that will simultaneously creep me out and amuse me. Stephen King's latest, Under the Dome
, maybe? Nah. I will get to that eventually, even though a friend, a King fan with similar book tastes, panned it. Margaret Atwood's The Year of the Flood
? Defintely, just not yet. I may want to read Oryx and Crake
again first.I'm thinking Tim La Haye's Left Behind: A Novel of the Earth's Last Days
.My library will definitely have multiple copies.

You've got a 16 book commitment ahead of you if you go with the Left Behind series. I'd go with the equally creepy and hysterical Christ Clone Trilogy.
It's got Thetans, pseudo-science with a little of The Stand and The Omen thrown in.
It's whack-a-doo and no thinking required.
