@BenMyers1 Trust me to jump the gun and buy a copy in Waterstone's in York yesterday. I want a seagull! Great read though...life-affirming. Does The Offing easter egg mean that all your books are set in the same MyersVerse?

Charity Shop #5 The problem with charity shops in York is that they use AbeBooks, Discogs, etc. to price their wares and they overprice. Anyway, at British Heart Foundation on Goodramgate I added to my classic films and my growing collection of Carnegie Medal-winning books for £3
Charity Shop #4. Andy's Children's Hospice, Newland Ave. 45 time...a handful of Wings and ELO, a couple of Dylan covers and Yes, ELP & Ferry + Bruce not Unplugged and the 1973 Booker winner...all for a fiver.
Charity Shop #2 Cottingham Cat Rescue, Newland Ave. Cooder-scored 80s movie, Hull-born Stevie Smith novel, action movie double feature, Northumberland Folk Tales and a Doves CD...50p the lot
Charity Shop #1 Dove House Chanterlands Avenue. Three Kate Bush 45s incl. On Stage with pic sleeve, T-Rex & OMD 45s, Vertigo graphic novel, Papillon DVD, horror film book and Ace Records Specialty sample CD...not a bad haul
An afternoon watching the Yoto @CarnegieMedals awards ceremony. The students have read seven books over seven weeks, and their vote went to, 'I Must Betray You' by Ruta Sepetys, a thriller about the Romanian revolution of 1989. Congrats to all the authors involved in this award.
@BenMyers1 Halfway through Cuddy and loving it. I enjoy the way it's written, I can read 100 pages in no time at all...Ulysses took me about 10 years to read, but I did spend most of those years pretending to be reading it.
