I finished chapter three of Kharis.

Huzzah, congratulations!

I struggled to find the right sort of book to read on Friday night, and ended up settling on Flashman's Lady. I'm not sure if I will continue it, I have some books on the way, and if one of those arrives it will probably take precedence.

[nanila]

Glad there was something to plug the gap, anyway!

I read some longfic and some non-fiction! (Plus maps/etc, because trip.)

[nanila]

Yay! Also, trip: still sounding very exciting. :)

[dhampyresa]

It was very exciting, thank you!

I read bits of 00Q, went D'AWWW and angsted and laughed from the bottom of my heart. Oh fandom, you are my saviour. <3

And I did finish reading the second Riddle-Master book. Now, onwards with the last book!

[nanila]

Wow, much accomplishment! Go you!

I finished Waugh's Sword of Honour trilogy and read most of Keith Douglas' From Alamein to Zem Zem plus dipped into the complete Isaac Rosenberg

[nanila]

Sounds like a weekend well spent. \o/

Despite ongoing battle with getting the kobo to keep working for more than ten pages, I've read another couple of 'chapters' of the current story (which I think is a novelette? part of a collection of stories, anyway). I hate it. If I wasn't reading it for a purpose, I'd be writing scathing reviews on goodreads.

[nanila]

Augh, imposed torture-reading! I'm sorry!

[fred_mouse]

Thanks. *grits teeth* It will be over soon, and I don't have to ever care about the author.

But oh, I wish that horror writers didn't default to 'let us have lots of really horrid people to make the point that this is a horrid story'.
