I've just started on Edward St. Aubyn's Patrick Melrose novels. He's a sort of updated Simon Raven. He writes very well and very funnily about absolutely appalling rich people.

Spreadsheets. So many spreadsheets. Also, Dreamwidth.

A romance by an author I've enjoyed in the past but this one is more ensemble than I prefer.

Work emails, some Dreamwidth, so much twitter.

I made the mistake of picking up T Kingfisher's "The Seventh Bride" just before bed with the idea of reading a chapter. Had to stop (most of the way through) just before midnight, but so far I'm loving it, and the rather pointed commentary it makes about how choices aren't when there is a significant power differential ("Peasants don't say no to lords"). The fairy tale aspect is pretty interesting as well.

I forgot to find their last names because they were too complicated to jot down, ha.

It was still the third when I read Tending the Bull by Sannion. It counts. :)
