In Which We Discuss Books I Read in my 28th Year, Week 14/52

Only one book last week - 12th to 18th November.  Little Myth Marker, one of the Myth Adventures books which I originally read as a teenager.

It's so nice being able to read them all over again.  I didn't actually realise until now that this one was written before I was born!

Four books last week - 5th to the 11th of November.  Two audiobooks, one that I'd read before, and two on kindle, including on that I'd read before.

Herding Hemingway's Cats is a nice popular genetics book, and I found that listening to it - even without paying a huge amount of attention - really helped clarify concepts for me which later came up in lectures.  I already had an overview, so it was easier to get on with the little details.  I also re-listened to About a Boy.  I'm so glad it's now studied in schools; there's so much to discuss in it.

I also read The Ex-Factor, a very silly book in which four friends decide to set each other up with their exes rather than risk another Tinder date.  It was 99p on Kindle.

Finally, I re-read Myth-ing Persons, the fifth in the Myth Adventures series.  I just looked it up, and apparently there are nineteen books in total.

I found out on the 16th that Sheri Tepper died on the 22nd of October.

Two books last week, one a reread, one I don't think I had actually read before.  The Martian which I last read back in May, and Hit or Myth, which I apparently missed when I read the series as a teenager.  I'm quite enjoying reading the series through again!
