Doubting the verdict of the government is hardly wanting to believe in conspiracies.
Ballistics and Ruby's motives alone haven't been credibly explained, not that I follow it too closely.

I would say that: eye-witnesses aren't very good; you can always find oddities in complex events and people make assumptions while being very inexpert at stuff. Thinking about the direction of travel of him/his head after he was shot for the last one.

I think JFK conspiracies are, for a lot of people, the gateway drug leading to faked moon landings and 911 truthers and antivax loons, but as Watergate showed, when there is an actual real conspiracy, they are leaky ships and it doesn't take much to unravel the truth. Quite simply, people talk. Don't remember who said it, but once two people know a secret, it's a secret no longer

I thought this was pretty cool. Borges is a great writer.

Musashi, about Japan's most famous samurai. Great writing and storytelling but at almost 1000 pages it did start to drag a bit by the end.
Roadside Picnic, the book that inspired the movie Stalker. For as good as it was touted to be, it was fairly underwhelming. I had the same reaction to Cat's Cradle.

I loved Cat’s Cradle. But I read it as a 16 or 17 year old, which might be the perfect age for it.
