It's so funny, in the dedication he's like: For my mum, the most important woman in my life, this book is dedicated to you. Now for God's sake, don't read it.

(because the book contains all the cabbage he's done in his life)

Finished Lisa Gardner yesterday. Took me a long time as I was very busy for the past few days. Today I am completely jobless. I wonder how things change so soon.

I finished Firstborn and am now onto Neil Gaiman's The Graveyard Book, which has finally arrived at the library (my position on the request queue was something like 119th for a while).

I haven't read Neverwhere (yet), but American Gods by him is one of the best books I've ever read.

Yes, yes it is.


Started reading The Glass Bead Game - Herman Hesse, but the preachiness was getting on my nerves so I stopped. Now reading Mass Effect: Revelation - Drew Karpyshyn.

He's one of Bioware's writers; did Knights of the Old Republic, lots of Jade Empire and Baldur's Gate II, and of course Mass Effect. Plus a bunch of books.

Yes, yes it is.
