Nothing at my end. Life has been kinda busy lately.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

    Equations of Life by Simon Morden - it’s ok post apocalyptic sci-fi. It’s got a lot of Russian swearing mixed in which is fun, if slightly incomprehensible

    Will Save the Galaxy for Food by Yahtzee Croshaw - just finished this because the third book is finally available for E-readers. If you have any experience with Yahtzee from the internet I would encourage you to give his books a try. He is a very talented writer and I frequently laughed out loud at this book. He had that very British knack for humorous asides that can be a whole page or just a single aside

    Dragon Ball - My new e-reader has a color screen so I’ve been trying manga on it. This volume covers the Goku/Tien fight and it was easily the best one in the series up to this point

      I waited for years to update my ereader because a colour version was “just around the corner”. After ten years my Kobo dies and I need to buy a new one. About half a year later Kobo releases a colour ereader. C’est la vie.

        That does suck, I got the kobo libra color. I will say that the color and improved response times make it an overall improvement however the buttons are way less tactile and it feels much less bright. So it’s not a full upgrade if it makes you feel a little better
