    Just finished my second reading of Iain M. Banks' The Algebraist, still love it!

    Plus I've been reading a lot of Gengoroh Tagame's comics over the past week or so. (those are NSFW - just in case you might google his name ;) )

    I am listening to The Final Confession of Mabel Stark, by Robert Hough, narrated by Betty Bobbitt. It is a very much fictional aurobiography, of the real-life Mabel Stark, who was the most famous female tiger trainer in history. Extremely funny so far.

    I am now listening to The Third Policeman by Flann O'Brien, narrated by Jim Norton. This is the book Desmond has in the TV series "Lost".

    A rather strange book so far.
