Pointing at you

Yes you. If you're reading this then it means you.

Whatcha reading? Any good? Would you recommend it to me or what caveat would you add?

Current read is: How Right you Are, Jeeves, by P.G. Wodehouse. Anything by him is golden, and doesn't really need to be taken in order. (The TV series with Steven Fry and Hugh Laurie is fabulous, too!)

One of the other authors I return to is Anthony Boucher for interesting mysteries, but he's very dated and mostly out of print at this point.

...i've mostly been reading wikipedia, but i was considering picking up Clive Barker's 'Books of Blood' for a re-read.

except that i just realized i don't seem to own them. *goes to look*

i was correct, i don't own them. i'll have to rectify that. in the meantime, i'll probably read The Inhuman Condition instead.

Hmmm Clive Barker, I know he's really popular, but I've not read any of his. Perhaps I'll fix that.

for a first-time Clive Barker read, i'd suggest one of his more whimsical works, The Thief of Always. although The Inhuman Condition, which is a collection of short stories, is also good.

Oh yes Wodehouse. Sneakily funny.

Anthony Boucher huh, might give him a look. I'm a fan of golden age mysteries.
