Last book? Well I read the first thee Stainless Steel Rat books on the London Underground travelling to/from work. Books on a phone, not quite the same as curling up in a chair with paper.

Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. It was okay, kinda heavy on the wish fulfillment for nerd boys. I loved the references and I felt it was fun to read a video game/VR story where it seemed like an actual game and didn't substitute generic fictional equivalents for real world pop culture and games. (A similar appeal to Snow Crash) The last bit of it was rushed and I felt some characters were underdeveloped. Supposedly a movie is being made of it.

I've gone on a binge lately, re-reading the Republic/Imperial Commando series by Karen Traviss. Just finished Order 66 again.

The Life-changing Magic of Tidying Up, by Marie Kondo.
My life isn't changed so much, but I definitely have a lot less junk in my possession.

Hey that's actually a really good book!!
I finally read Coraline, because I wanna do some illustrations for it.
Actually, anyone here with a Goodreads account? Add me up!
RE: Last book you read - TheLastCandle - 02-08-2016
Throne of the Crescent Moon by Saladin Ahmed. A magical romp reminiscent of the best of the Arabian Nights which easily became one of my favorite fantasy novels in recent memory. Very much looking forward to the next book.
