(Third copy. I keep lending them out and they never come back.) Still funny in the bath, still the one I give to non-readers.8 out of 10@tinyapartmentbigtbr

Oathbringer reviewed by @thebigsleepy
I lost the thread around Christmas and never really got it back. Kept turning back to work out who was where. Fond of it, but this one beat me and it has gone on the shelf half done.6 out of 10Oathbringer
Moby-Dick reviewed by @thebigsleepy
September to May. The whaling chapters are the ones people warn you about and they turned out to be my favourite part; a few pages of rope or blubber is about right for a Tuesday.8 out of 10Moby-Dick
