Just started reading "The grace of kings" by Ken liu/

it's an epic fantasy (and its been compared to game of throes) but instead of a medieval setting it has an ancient Chinese inspired setting

Currently reading Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman. And loving it so much!

^I remember there was a tv series based on that years ago, it was pretty good, never read the book though.

^from reading the intro to the book, the TV show left quite a lot out. But I've never seen the TV show so I can't compare. The book is fab though, would highly recommend!

Is it good? This is on my list of things to read.

Are they good Puck?

I've got several books on the go at the moment but I'm struggling to get through any of them. I'm reading '26.2' by Julie Welch, it's quite old but it's about different people running the London Marathon, it's quite inspiring. :)

I'm not very good at forming opinions so all I can say is that I thought it was ok. Worth reading I think.

Hi serendipity! I enjoyed the Camino book, her priorities were different to mine but it gave me a taste of what could be if I get to the starting point. The women who ran with Wolves is harder going but I'm sure I'll get more used to the writing style, thank you for asking!

I have tons of books which I have on the go, I flick between each and it gets very frustrating after a while, but then when I sit down to read one book and I fancy another i'll go to that one out of boredom! :eyeroll: As long as you have a book that inspires you that's great! Do you run, or want to run?

The Ice Twins - S.K. Tremayne

Serendipity. 21-04-2017 10:07 PM

I really enjoyed The Ice Twins.

I just finished The Quickening by Julie Myerson which was average but an easy read. I need to decide what to read next as my easy book. I'm also reading The Voices Within by Charles Fernyhough but I haven't got very far with it yet, and dipping into Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur.
