Next up: The Weirdstone of Brisingamen by Alan Garner. I've heard adaptions of this, but I think the book will be better. A purchase from December 2015.
The book was better than the adaptions. I can see why - there are some tricky events and locations for adaptions, whether radio or TV. A rather good fantasy, although it ends rather abruptly. I'm glad I've got the sequel.


Next up: Cat among the Pigeons by Agatha Christie. Another from the ones I bought way back in February 2010. Her 60th book.
