whatsya reading ?, by Deleted on Feb 20, 2015 22:09:54 GMT 1, Recently finished The Martian by Andy Weir. One of my favorite reads in a long time. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys very near sci-fi. Another vote for this.Good read. Have just finished 11.22.63 - a most enjoyable page turner. Have just started Charlotte mosley's 'the mitfords: letters between six sisters.' Which is proving to be surprisingly entertaining.

His first book IIRC and is the product of an active mind + copious weed + time on his hands to come out with the oddest / funniest short stories I have ever read. Dons story is possibly the strangest thing I have ever read- and quite wonderful

David Sedaris is gloriously funny.
He reads his short stories on radio 4 from time to time. Great one over Xmas.
His delivery is great. And, as you say, his short stories are so funny.

All his books are a good read, Trainspotting was excellent.
