Books

I've just finished Terry Pratchett's Men at Arms (one of my favourites so far) and have started the first Phryne Fisher novel, Cocaine Blues.

In the first I was disconcerted by Lady Ramkin's butler being called Willikins (I kept reading it as my own LJ name) and in the second delighted to find that someone on my flist wrote the introduction. Very cool!

Oh and I joined LibraryThing (as Vilakins) this week and loaded up most of my books but for all the art and children's ones. So many were bought at second-hand book fairs and shops (books are too expensive to buy new here) that it was very hard if not impossible to find the editions and covers for a lot of them. I'm going to add the library books I read and like because the recommendations feature seems to work well.
