I've just finished Oathbringer, and will now take a brief interlude from The Stormlight Archive to read The Midnight Library by Matt Haig.

The Way of Kings blew me away. The characters are extremely engaging, with arcs that display incredible humanity. The land of Roshar is beautifully rich in detail, and the plot is intriguing, with a perfect blend of political, religious and skeptical themes throughout. A true epic!

I cannot wait to review these two, The Way of Kings in particular is keeping me very busy! What's everybody else reading right now?

Just like Killing Thatcher, Say Nothing is another example of fact that reads like the most absorbing of fiction. The story of Jean McConville delicately and insightfully weaves together the narratives of some of the most influential characters during the troubles. A must read!

Percival Everett's James is an absolute masterpiece in its own right, as well as an insightful prism with which to view the original adventures of Huck Finn. A thoughtful and profound critique of slavery wrapped up in a unique and distinct retelling of Mark Twain's original story. 10/10

Faithbreaker was a thrilling read in what is the final book of The Fallen Gods trilogy, a story about love, betrayal and sacrifice, and what each of those things mean in relation to one another. I absolutely loved the characters and the world of Middren and its surrounding lands!

I thought Flowers For Algernon was a deeply profound story that explored the worth and value we see in ourselves and in others, and how that drives the way we treat those in our lives. Deeply poignant at times, I did cry at least a couple of times. 10/10

Great, thanks to the towel on my neighbour's washing line, I will now have Ringo Starr's voice stuck in my head for the rest of the day narrating everything I do!

So, my afternoon reading in one of my favourite cafes was briefly interrupted, delightfully so, by a rendition of Angels by Robbie Williams. Unfortunately there is some background noise as some people seemed not to appreciate it as much as I did.

Moneyland was a fascinating read, providing forensic detail on the levels of corruption in our global financial systems, and how those wanting to avoid scrutiny and the rule of law are able to obscure the details of their wealth from authorities, to the detriment of everybody else.

For some reason you've just reminded me of the spud gun I used to have when I was a kid, which made me feel pretty indestructible! Right up until a policeman stopped to question me while I was firing tiny potato pellets at my school one weekend, and my life of crime came to a very abrupt end.

Introducing you to my niece's dog Willow, who is hands (or paws) down my favourite family member. 🐾

So, I did some googling, or as I like to call it, internet sleuthing, and I believe what you have posted here is what's referred to as a boomerang picture.

Such technical wizardry is too powerful for likes of to be wielding, so I shall reply with a good old fashioned photo.

I'm going to say abracadabra and make this chocolate bar disappear!

I promise you it will be one of the best magic Twix you'll ever see.

I did one of those online personality tests earlier, and would like to share the results with everyone.

I was absolutely captivated by Killing Thatcher. Rory Carroll does a fantastic job of delicately weaving together the political history of Ireland with the audacious IRA plot to assassinate the British prime minister. He does so with the highest level of journalistic integrity.
