Yet another Monday. Finally finished ‘Mexican Gothic’ (which is amazing) on the train back from Glasgow yesterday, and about to start Akita Whiteley’s ‘The Beauty’.

@MutantTheorist Said this over on Lisa’s post, but again, congratulations, brilliant news, so happy for you!!

[Iris Kleinecke-Bates @Iris_writes]

@jesuis_tired @MutantTheorist Congratulations, that’s amazing news!!

[Iris Kleinecke-Bates @Iris_writes]

Not started it yet, but I’m looking forward to Chanda Porter’s The Seep, which is next in my list.

[Iris Kleinecke-Bates @Iris_writes]

Catweezle for me. Don’t know why and hardly remember the programme now, but I was absolutely terrified. Even had nightmares about him.

[Iris Kleinecke-Bates @Iris_writes]

Chaotic neutral here as well. There is some sense of order but it’s not necessarily consistent and it’s really only evident to me

[Iris Kleinecke-Bates @Iris_writes]

Another Monday and I’ve just started Trang Thanh Tran’s She Is A Haunting, which is excellent so far.

[Iris Kleinecke-Bates @Iris_writes]

@MutantTheorist What is it? Can’t remember any CFP!

[Iris Kleinecke-Bates @Iris_writes]

@MutantTheorist @jesuis_tired That sounds amazing, and I totally agree! Where is this, and what music is it going to be? Would love to hear about it.

The lurgy that's been circulating here has finally claimed me as its victim.

Always wanted to see what it's like to mark essays while feeling ill. Guess I finally get my wish...
