I’m doing ok reading non-fiction at the moment but craving some pacy fun(-ish) but not stupid fiction on the side. have enjoyed eg Pagans, Melmoth, The Pretender, Cuddy, No Friend To This House, Matrix, Altes Land. historical content is not obligatory despite what it looks like recommendations?

it has taken Penny precisely five weeks to accept that I now look like this or maybe she was waiting for me to wear this navy dress for maximum shedding impact
