Have spent the weekend battling an infestation of weevils in my kitchen and finishing The Game of Kings. One was a frequently-tragic story filled with set-backs and leavened with punning literary jokes, and the other is one of my favourite books, ba-doom.
(OMGsogood. However many times, and I still race through the last 200 pages and get all teary at the end.)
