It is impressive how many "obscure" books you lot have recommended.
Seriously--my audio book subscription place has "Something Wicked This Way Comes" and "The Secret History"...that's 2 out of 10, folks.
So, stuff that I've finished:
Don't Sleep, There are Snakes
Sin in the Second City
American Gods
Redwall
Mossflower
Martin the Warrior
You're an Animal, Viskovitz!
Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell
...Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell was bearable at the end.
Sarah, I'm sorry. There was too much description on the boring things. Like Drawlight and La Salles and not enough of the interesting parts. Like Fairy. Or John Ussglass.
all of these spellings are approximate, because I listened to it as an audio book.
However, it had been shorter, and the unnecessary parts had been cut--it would have been fine!
But I'm making progress.
