Once I figure that it&#x27;s a long story, I bookmark it for later consumption.<p>I look at them as mini-novels &#x2F; long short stories.

Problem is that he&#x27;s mostly writing about the scum of the earth, so your blood pressure is rocking before you get done.)<p>This one was good  TL;DR; Guy scammed farmers out of millions, but all the details, back and side stories were  very interesting.<p>Keep trying, there is more out there!
