Was a very quick read, nothing substantial at all and somewhat frustrating the way things "just happened" - made life seem very easy!!
Had more potential as a concept than it fulfilled.
I am exhausted. My mother in law has just spent a week with us. Not only did she bring over a cough and cold for me, but she has kept me awake every night with her snoring, coughing and talking to herself.
Add to that the fact that she is constantly talking to herself during the day, or starting conversations with you from another room and it meant getting much needed siesta was out of the question.
She isn't ill - just one of life's self appointed victims that requires a LOT of attention, and is incapable of saying anything positive or having fun.
Seriously it feels like a huge cloud has lifted now that she has gone - even Moreno seems happy. He hasn't left me at all this morning as we have cleaned the apartment whilst Sands took her mum to the airport.
Anyway the good news is that I managed to finish Rough Music:
It was OK, if you want to read about gay, dysfunctional family and alzheimers!
In reality it was story about children growing up, somewhat naively, and the friendships they built and retained.
A little weird to a very small extent, but an easy and enjoyable read!
What next? No idea at this stage. I have one book to read to review so I should do that this week - especially as I have about 3 other books to review "on their way"
Going to take a break until at least after the weekend before I select anothr book as I have at least two technical books that I need to finish off so I can review them.
I suppose that it is well written and shows a good insight into human nature, but I wont be reading it again.
Not sure what to read next - have a couple of books I need to read to review this month and a couple of photographic books that I want to re-read, but I should try and have a novel on the go as well.
