Recent readings included Unseen Academicals by Terry Pratchett which I loved absolutely. If there is one writer whose every word deserves to be etched in gold, that's Terry Pratchett. An amazing book once again.
Next Terry Pratchett is writing "I Shall Wear Midnight" of Tiffny Aching series and after that, Raising Taxes with the super awesome Mr. Moist Von Lopwig who makes a return after Going Postal and Making Money.
I didn't buy any new books in November because there are some old ones that I need to finish. Actually, there is quite a backlog of books that I need to read.
Current books in Reading Limbo
The Malice Box by Martin Langfield. I don't know why I picked this one up. It seems that after the success of Dan Browne all these ancient mysteries getting solved novels are coming up like mushrooms. Though I wouldn't mind reading something like that by Matthew Reilly (his almost unbelievable scenerios are almost funny), but still.
Koko by Peter Straub. I bought this one cheap from a used book place. Just based on the cover art and the fact that once I read a book by Peter Straub, it was very slow and very boring, but I did finish it. Wanted to give the author a second chance, turns out Koko is slightly less boring. I'm waiting for the book to pick up pace as i read further into it.
Ah, and in other news, Eoin Colfer of Artemis Fowl fame has written the next installment of Douglas Adams' H2G2 series. It's called "And Another Thing". I like Colfer's writing style, it's fast paced, it's funny and his hooks in the story keep a reader gripped. I don't really care what hardcore H2G2 fans say, I like both Adams' work and Colfer's work, and I don't think any other writer here would have done justice to Adams' legacy.
That's what I've been reading, what have you been reading?
