End of Year Reading

Cat reading tastes…

Mara: Any suggestions on what books to take to the beach?

Bao: Pack your Kindle. Randomly select.

Mara: What have you been reading lately?

I also purchased
Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents

Bao: Well, there are heaps, but Adam Sisman’s John le Carré: The Biography, Anthony Doerr’s All the Light We Cannot See, and Terry Pratchett’s Small Gods: Discworld are the purchased ones I keep turning back to from the hundred-odd downloaded free samples…

Mara: That is so you. Downloading hundreds of samples and rarely making the commitment to buy the full book.

Whatever you are, be a good one.
