I'm currently reading "Holy Cow" by Sarah MacDonald. More precisely, I'm re-reading it. For about the fourth time.
I have quite a few books, but I read them pretty fast and I have a tendency to go through my whole collection then read it again. I like to be in the middle of reading something at all times. Reading helps me sleep.
Anyway, this particular book at this time has been very useful - enlightening even. As irreverent and lightweight as its analysis of religion(s) is, it still manages to give insight.
I was pleased to stumble upon another Christopher Brookmyre at the weekend - Not the End of the World, for $4 at the Mt Eden Hospice Shop. I love second hand stores. At the beach yesterday, I lent this to my brother, certain that he would enjoy the Scottish humour - he still has the book. He's probably even finished it by now.
I can't wait to get my teeth into it.
Next on my list to buy is Susannah Clarke's Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell. I know nothing about it but this: I love the title, the cover is spunky, and it has been recommended to me by someone I trust. This is enough reason.
