Finished the book I borrowed from thing one, and it was very good. Quite keen to see the film of this now, and have started book two. Seems a good time to properly start including my furlough reading in here. I'd not have read this much normally in the same period of time. How long have I been off work now? Nearly two weeks, and not really achieved anything else.
| author | book | thoughts |
|---|---|---|
| Ian Rankin | Westwind1 | Dated thriller, shame. |
| Ian Rankin | Doors Open1 | Really good crime caper in Edinburgh but with no Rebus. |
| Suzanne Collins | The Hunger Games1 | Borrowed from the children, but very good! |
I have cooked quite a lot, got three dishes on the go today; our normal Monday arrabiata sauce, though a larger and less spicy version that all four of us can share, then my new sausage and butterbean casserole, and then a little vegetable curry. Just a single portion of the curry as there was some coconut milk left over from the beef stew Clare and the boys made.
I will go back to my bathroom woodwork painting in a bit. I will achieve something, I will.
Did we really just overtake China for total number of coronavirus cases..?
