Life is a little chaotic at the moment and thus I am reading but at a slower pace. This time last month for instance I'd read eight books... this month... three... although two of those were quite long books.

I've only read two DSs and liked them both so I'll definitely be reading the rest of the Hyperion series. I even saw a comment somewhere where someone liked the final two books better than the first two. So it'll be interesting to see.

I'm really looking forward to reading The Daughter of Time as so many people cite it as their favourite Tey book.

Loads of people love that one too so I'm really looking forward to reading it. I do highly recommend the two I've read this year as well, The Franchise Affair and the one I've reviewed here. Magic, both of them.
