This was another week in which my taste in books led me further afield than the local library. I went to the Great Big Library in the centre of town, which is full of Exciting Shiny Novels I couldn't dream of finding in the library closer to home.
Also, I've been reading a lot more recently. Of late I'd kind of been in something of a reading slump; that doesn't seem to be so much of the case any more. Maybe it's because I'm finding more books that I truly want to read, or my tastes have changed slightly.
Excuse the random bottle of water in the picture. My desk is a mess at the moment, but left long enough it will clean itself.

I remember reading Junk a great while back. Very gritty and hard hitting. Between Shades of Grey is another thought provoking read. ENJOY!
ReplyDeleteFab set! I finished Btw Shades of Gray today. So good but so sad.
