Still joining in the Challenges? This month it's a play, a book of poetry or a graphic novel.


I finished that challenge last month with Daytripper, which is really, really good.

Are you 50 Book challenging, or similar? How are you getting on with that?


Hmmm. I think I will make it, but I am not sure. Too many things looming in the near future to know whether I will have much time for reading.

Do share.


I read a ridiculous book yesterday. I have no idea whether it is a parody or a serious attempt at ``solving'' Edwin Drood by connecting each character to a character from Greek Mythology. It was thoroughly insane and written in the springing associations of a really bad first-year undergraduate essay; and the guy has a PhD in classics. I don't know what to think.

Edit: also, I started Rivers of London, which is entertaining. And Mark Gatiss Devil in Amber which is ... also entertaining.

I should also probably finish Heartless before I come to Edinburgh.
