Ἐν ἀρχῇ ἦν ὁ Λόγος*

Always wanted to start something with that, so a blog post about books is as good as anything I suppose. A round up of the books I've read in the last year or so. Well, since I posted the last list anyway...

1. "The Secret Speech" by Tom Rob Smith
2. "They Found Him Dead" by Georgette Heyer
3. "Mort" by Terry Pratchett
4. "London Labour and the London Poor" by Henry Mayhew
5. "Hops and Glory" by Pete Brown
6. "No Wind of Blame" by Georgette Heyer
7. "The Truth" by Terry Pratchett
8. "From the Holy Mountain" by William Dalrymple
9. "A Blunt Instrument" by Georgette Hayer
10."Superfreakonomics" by Levitt & Dubner
11."Unseen Academicals" by Terry Pratchett
12."The Uses of Literacy" by Richard Hoggart
13."Duplicate Death" by Georgette Heyer
14."The Fry Chronicles" by Stephen Fry
15."All gone to Look for America" by Peter Millar
16."Detection Unlimited" by Georgette Heyer
17."Making Money" by Terry Pratchett
18."Last Act in Palmyra" by Lindsey Davis
19."Perry Boys" by Ian Hough
20."Anything Goes" by Lucy Moore
21."Interesting Times" by Terry Pratchett
22."The Jaguar Smile" by Salman Rushdie
23."King Harald's Saga" translated by Magnus Magnusson
24."The Calendar" by David Ewing Duncan (re-read again)
25."The Ecclesiastical History of the English People" by Bede

Oh dear, I've now finished all the Georgette Heyer crime novels, so I'll have to move onto something else that's light and fun to get me through the working week (when I'm not working through Mr Pratchett's ouvre that is). Perhaps I could start on Mr H's Wodehouse collection...
