Hi All!
I thought it might be time to share a few of the books that have made it into our heads... and those still on the nightstand...
Here's some I've finished recently or have got a fair chunk through. Recommended:
Questionable Practices: Stories
Eileen Gunn

I've found it to be good fun, if the first story is written in what seems to be an irrtating tone of voice. Turns out that's the point. If you like short stories which get weird with really no warning, then this should go into your amazon basket.
Motorman
David Ohle

Another weird one. You know how Sci-Fi likes to explain itself all the time? If you're like me, and find it a bit dull, this might be a good one for you. Lots of language play and narrative fun amongst the general theme of a getaway. Truely engaging and funny, despite the sense of being a bit lost in what it's all about.
May We Be Forgiven
A. M. Homes

A "family drama" where something terrible happens on every page, or every paragraph. Violence, death, adultery, terroism, medical distasters, depression, emotional breakdown and Richard Nixon all feature as bit parts. Probably a bit too long for me, though I did finish it.
So, what do you have been reading?
What are you looking forward to?
There's always this if you're lost of ideas :)
