Well that's one hell of a video. I guess he took more away from that book than me. I'll have to reread it after this.

It’s a classic, but I’ll be real it can be a hard read. Not really just the content, but if you aren’t used to his writing style it can take some getting used to.

It's probably the timing. I was fed up with misery porn at the time.

Jim and David Bowie were not related.
Nobody's perfect, but Wendi writes out notes; might be wise to double check on proper nouns. Or where the emphasis lands on Spanish words.
(I liked the floofy hair better, but de gustibus etc.)

So far the book is very based. Like that Wendigoon casually drops a five hour video without any fanfare, while other creators self destruct over such projects.

I saw this came out yesterday and was like "Awesome. Gonna have something to listen to at work." An hour in, might pick the audiobook of this sometime.

I have had it sitting on my shelf for over a year and haven’t gotten around to it yet, conflicted about listening to the video or reading the book first.

I'd definitely recommend reading the book first (which to be fair is also his take in the video) because it really is difficult to capture how the violence hits you like a truck on a first reading. Captain White's failed filibuster early in the book doesn't get too much discussion time, but the brutality of what happens is really effective and sets the tone for what is to come. The Kid is also a pretty ambiguous character, which he also talks about in the video, and your view of him will be probably be colored one way if you watch the video first.

Wasn't familiar with the book before this video
I partially regret watching his video without having read the book but I was pretty sure that if I tried to read it currently I'd just end up feeling miserable
Maybe I'll give it a shot when I've forgotten most of the details in a few years

Got into the hour mark and decided to order the book online along with The Road, hopefully will get here before the heat death of the universe.
