My Winter reading project just arrived  

I cannot wait to start, though the original Cain's Jawbone remains unsolved by me  

#CainsJawbone #JohnFinnemore #TRFM #PuzzleBook #Unbound

So into #CainsJawbone, although only seven pages in. I can see the utility of a spreadsheet. I even dreamed I had a voice chat with a friend who began reading it earlier this month.

I love my #UK pen pals but I dearly wish at least one of them knew about this book years earlier and told me, and not left me to wade deep into a #Wodehouse novel to learn about #Torquemada.

Six Books You’ll (Probably) Never Be Able to Read

As headlines have been informing us recently, censorship is very much alive and well across the United States—but there’s a difference between a book you’re not allowed to read and one you simply can’t read. The subset of non-censored reading material out there that actively seems to dare readers to make any sense of it is deep and vast. From codices to puzzles to straight-up art projects, books that aren’t meant to be read (or are essentially impossible to read) present the bibliophile with a true conundrum: Just how hard should you have to work to read and enjoy a book?

Here, then, are six publications that you’re free to try to track down, but which have a seriously select group of readers nonetheless…

RT by @sciam: My #oped #article in @SciAm asks if the murder mystery book #cainsjawbone can be solved with #AI. Thanks to @Unbounders and @Zindi, @rina_gill, and @AmyFlorida626 for trying to solve the case!

TY also to @sophiebushwick and @meghas!

#cainsjawbone day 2

Day 1 was a daunting. Nothing made sense and the first dozen pages were just, well, strange.

However, I’ve done some reading and have a plan of action and understand how to crack this now. Figure out the narrators, cluster, solve the puzzles and then the stories should start to make some sense.

Maybe.

Learning more and more each day and for this week I’ll just read and take notes.
