Tell her to read it AFTER she's finished doing the housework

Currently reading The legendary Joe Meek. Fascinating portrait of Britain in the early 60's with lots of famous music names thrown in.

Two decent books i've read recently and would recommend if you are after a sci-fi light read are:

Wool: Wool eBook: Hugh Howey: Amazon.co.uk: Kindle Store

Three Feet of Sky: Three Feet of Sky: Book One eBook: Stephen Ayres: Amazon.co.uk: Kindle Store

And Constance Briscoe thought that the book lacked character development.

Duh!

It's SF, you idiot. SF doesn't do character development.

Oh Dear # 2.

Most SF is for autistic dweebs. Any normal person finds most SF uni-dimensional and unsatisfying.
That's because imagining alternate physical realities is easy, imaging alternate personalities is hard.

Currently reading Catch 22. Trying to get on top of stuff I should have read but never got round to.

Well most SF is crap. Like most books of any genre. A good story is a good story in any universe.
