It's like in Diamond Age when Nell went to visit her brother later in the book and he spent all day consuming trashy ractives.
I've tried a few times to get into Diamond Age, and every time i lose interest within the first 50 pages. Is it worth another try?
The only Stephenson book I managed to "finish" was the first two thirds of Seveneves, totally lost interest in the last third of the book too.
