Since last week’s massive haul of new books I have been good and not been tempted to buy any more.
I have been able to secure a couple of tickets for Silvery Dude and me to see Ben Aaronovitch speak about his new novel Whispers Underground at Waterstone’s in London’s fabulous Piccadilly in June; I am very excited about that indeed as I love the series.
I have also managed to catch up on some of my reviews both here and over at Bride of the Screen God; still got quite a few to do though.
But the big news this week is that yes, I have finally finished a book; my re-read of ‘Salem’s Lot. I am so glad I picked this up as part of my Big Re-Read project as I had sort of forgotten just how awesome it actually is. I’m going to enjoy writing about it (when I get that far).
Have a good reading week!

Nose in a book
I love author events, though if I go up to get a book signed I always freeze up and have no idea what to say when I get to the front of the queue. Enjoy Aaronovitch.

I know what you mean. When we got a book signed by Iain Banks my husband did all the talking!

Oooh, enjoy meeting Aaronovitch. I really enjoyed book one, and am debating on how soon I can get the second one. I freeze too when I meet authors. Just get tongue-tied and start giggling, it’s not pretty….
Review Salem’s Lot soon! pretty please…..I have been meaning to read The Stand this year, or The Shining. I could swear I own them both, but now discover I don’t own either. Since I enjoyed rereading Pet Semetary two years ago, I’m curious how you liked Salem’s Lot this time around.

I can’t wait to read your review of ‘Salem’s Lot — one of my all-time favorite books by King!
