Start this off in bed tonight. Probablly finish it since i have insomnia

Anyone read any of Val McDermid's books? Just bought her first one.

About half way through Jo Nesbo's Police

Sometimes when I'm particularly hung over I'll spend an entire day reading a science fiction novel cover to cover.

Yesterday was The Three Body Problem, by Cixin Liu. Seemingly it's taken China by storm, and they've just released English translations of the first two books in the trilogy. It's hard SF, based on an actual problem in orbital mechanics, and ends up dabbling with sh!t going on in 11 dimensions, all more or less supported by current physics theories.

It's really interesting if you're into that kind of business. Although I imagine it's a f*cking nightmare if you're not, like.

The Grim company book 2 - Sword in the North by Luke Scull

Pretty decent fantasy stuff. Written by somebody who gets who is clearly inspired by game of thrones but who can write a book that doesn't take 6 years to come out and with a story you can actually follow.

Do most of you read books on ereaders?

Usually have a few books on the go at once, usually on Kindle these days.

Just finished: Phineas Redux - Anthony Trollope, 4th of the Palliser novels, The Story of the Lost Child, final book in Elena Ferrante's quartet of Neapolitan novels, and Bel Ami by Maupassant.

Currently reading Infinite Jest (David Foster Wallace), My Struggle (Karl Ove Knausgaard) and The Panda Theory (Pascal Garnier).

Unusual for me to be reading so much in translation I generally prefer stuff originally written in English.

Anyone interested in posting out books to fellow madders ? Never know what to do with mine when they're done .
