Wednesday What Are You Reading

Currently Reading

Abiding (Ben Quash) - last year's Lent book, which I never finished. The first section at least is rather irritating, given I'm on the verge of moving and it's extolling the virtues of stability. Pilgrim's Progress (John Bunyan), for similar reasons - currently with Mr Worldly Wiseman. Still going with The Weather In The Streets (Rosamund Lehmann). And started Small Gods before I left Cambridge.


Recently Finished

Reaper Man and Witches Abroad (Terry Pratchett). I am very fond of the witches.


Up Next

Big Brother (Lionel Shriver) - and I mean it this time; book club is a week today. Gone Girl (Gillian Flynn) for the other book club, which didn't have a date set last time I looked at my work emails. Also, one or more of my recent acquisitions: Feminist Theology: a reader (ed. Anne Loades); The Penguin Book of Women Poets; Three Men on the Bummel (Jerome K. Jerome)


Other Media

I'm caught up with Mythbusters, which seems to be returning to its beautiful basic concept, again. Enjoying The Last Leg when I can catch it - modern technology foils me again, as I don't know the PIN for Housemate's Tivo box, and I have to because it's rated 18. The Musketeers is annoying me with its imposition of twenty-first century sensibilities on seventeenth century characters, but I'm still watching it. For reasons*.

*for example, a fanatical dedication to Alexandre Dumas père, his works, and anything claiming to be remotely based on his works.
