Your purchased? Have you started read it or finished it yet?

My last purchase was ‘Space Aged Indians’

But still reading ‘The Priest and the Witch’

Not clever enough to have more than one book on the go at a time.

It was interesting but totally different from his other books..of the punk variety.. coming from a punk background despite liking metal I really find the rockstarism of the whole scene ridiculous it's all about signing to major labels..fans..big tour's.. it's worth a read if you can find it cheap.. funnily enough I've also re read Jayne county's it's an interesting book..

Galatea by Madeline Miller, not read as only recently purchased from a charity shop - saw it in the window and couldn't resist.

I have several piles of books that I'm either rereading/going to read soon so... I probably won't start it for a few months.

I just finished the last book I bought. The Diamond Age, by Neal Stephenson. I’m not sure how much I liked it. The final act really stepped things up though. Bloody revolution, conscious evolution, and a dash of slightly weirdly-handled sex to boot.

Unusually the book I've most recently bought is the one I'm currently reading - usually new books go into the fairy substantial 'To read' pile. It's I Belong Here: A Journey Along the Backbone of Britain by Anita Sethi.

Last physical book I purchased is a chick lit affair, from Sainsbury's in January, I started it on holiday and I doubt I will ever finish it, it's not really my cup of tea.

I purchased an audio book also for my holiday from my favourite author, Jill Manaell, her new one but never listening to an audio book and trying too a few times with this one, I am much more visual and need a hard copy in my hand (whhheeeeyyy!), my brain wanders too much. I'll get a physical copy when I can.
