ok guys decide my fate. I've only read snow crash and diamond age, I like the first and love the second. I'm equally endeared to flashy history and procedural nerdism. my top three pynchon is gravity's rainbow, against the day, v. what by stephenson should I read next?

I deliberately didn't include anathem on the list even tho everyone tells me I should read it, I just like the vibes of the first two options best. based on plot summaries I don't think I care about reamde or seveneves

i don’t think you’d enjoy anathem much actually. i like reamde a lot but only one very specific part of it. i think cryptonomicon is probably more your vibe overall
