I finished Last Tango in Aberystwyth, the second Louie Knight book by Malcolm Pryce. Not quite as good as the first, I thought. It seemed a bit all over the place early on, but it was fun when it started to come together. These are comic hard-boiled detective stories set in an alternate Wales where the Druids run the organised crime.
That leaves me one book from completing this year's portion of my ABC Murders challenge. Before that, though, I'm reading Bête by Adam Roberts, my second most expensive book of the year, and not-unrelatedly my second brand new hardback of the year. (I really liked the cover.)
I also finished Just My Type by Simon Garfield, a book about fonts and type design. Pretty interesting, and a good job on the eBook given all the images and font samples. (I read the ePub version from kobo.) I probably still can't tell all those sanserifs apart, though.
