no matter how much i pretend to be a literature snob that exclusively reads kafka, camus and other classics, i just started re-reading good omens for the first time since i was 13 and all i can say is that it still slaps and that i just read 70 pages in one sitting

#good omens #oh my god the drunk scene made me cry from laughter #the full dialogue about the animals was hilarious i had forgotten that it was a lot longer than in the series #also this book is just a lot funnies in lithuanain generally speaking #although it does bother me that they traslated crowleys name to šliaužas and kept it after the name change #šliaužas literally translates to crawly/crawler and it sounds rather silly #idk i think it would make more sense if the translator had translated his name phonetically rather than directly #like idk they couldve just put a stress symbol when he was introduced and then when he changed his name #so it would be like kráulis and then after the name change it would be kraûlis (pretend the ^ is a ~ lmao)
