Thank you, on both counts! A bitch indeed. Thankfully I'm feeling better today; I have used up all the ice cubes we had, as I always need a lot of cold compresses when it hits.

Great books. Sorry to hear about you having a migraine, tho. Hope it has buggered off by now.

Thanks, BT, it is a lot better today. I almost feel like drinking coffee again. :)

Just not quite fully human then, if you're still off coffee. Btw, The Casual Vacancy is not a mystery - more of a social drama. I hope you still enjoy it.

Indeed, rather like one of the undead, but not a full zombie anymore. :D
Thanks, I thought I had seen it shelved as a mystery... well, it doesn't really matter, I'll read it anyway.

I really liked TCV, too. I remember the sleep deprivation from staying up to finish it - but I had to know how it ended.

Good to know you both enjoyed it. Makes me look forward to reading it even more.

I'm glad to hear your migraine is gone. Definitely stay away from Goodreads today!

Thanks, will do! And thank you for writing a post about that crap and warning others.

I loved My Family and Other Animals. Well, loved might be a strong word, but I enjoyed it, it was a fun, easy read.

Exactly what I am looking for in this book, something light and fun. Great that you liked it. :)
