"The Game of Life and How to Play It by Florence Scovel Shinn. Very recently. Life-changing. I really enjoyed this, I’m listening to it again at the moment." It's so straightforward but it's honestly working for me like no other book has. I've even written out a few quotes from the book and put them on my walls so I can repeat them to myself a few times every day. Already read it twice since December, second time so I could take notes. | |||

"The Terror by Dan Simmons - brilliant book, a fictional horror based on the real-life disappearance of the 1845 Franklin expedition to find the Northwest Passage. Trust me, you would not want to get scurvy. Bleeding from your hair follicles? Jeez. Currently halfway through Erebus: The Story of a Ship, which is Michael Palin's book on one of the ships that took part in the above mission, and the men who sailed in her. Nice to put faces to some of the characters who featured in The Terror. " Read it .....Good book | |||

"Dance with Dragons. Read all the GoT books in one go between the shows 1st and 2nd season. Was a grind, but because Martin has taken so long to finish the next book, it put me off reading. The shows end ruined it for me as well, so not going to bother with the last 2 books anyway. If they ever get finished. I’ve been meaning to read The Witcher series. Just haven’t been in a reading mood for a long time. " Felt like that for a while. Then a friend put me on to The painted man by Peter v Brett. Couldn't put it down | |||
