Books:
A Confederacy of Dunces is probably my favourite book of all time but I usually read Terry Pratchett, Robert Rankin and David Gemmell. I am reading Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman at the moment and that is going well so far*... I say reading it but I probably read about a paragraph a night and then fall asleep. Well, its reading of a sort I suppose. Further to the previous blurb I have, in recent times, expanded my range of authors to include Christopher Brookmyre, Kurt Vonnegut and Charles Bukowski. Liking their work!
* I have now finished reading Neverwhere and it proved to be most enjoyable. I am now reading The Witches of Chiswick by Robert Rankin... again it is going well so far so I'll let you know**...
**OK, just for the record I finished The Witches of Chiswick and it was very much to my liking.
