Hannibal or Why Am I Still Reading This?

Now Hannibal is free and sending Clarice new clues. I am only about half way through right now, and my favorite part is in the letter Hannibal sends Clarice, in which he tells her to look into a skillet. Huh. "Look into the skillet, Clarice. Lean over it and look down. If this were your mothers skillet, and it may well be, I t would hold among its molecules the vibrations of all the conversations held in its presence. All the exchanges, the petty irritations, the deadly revelations, the flat announcements of disaster, the poetry of love...Look into the honest iron and know Clarice, you can be as strong as you wish to be. The most Stable elements, Clarice, appear in the middle of the periodic table, roughly between iron and silver. Between Iron and Silver. I think that is appropriate for you." So, scary book, but it has to be scary. Im honestly not sure if I am going to finish it. I want to, but im not sure I want Hannibal in rummaging around in my mind.
