I've just started The Silmarillion for the second time. I last read it about 8 years ago.
I've also started reading a book about Arduino, which is rather interesting so far.

Robert Llewellyn is releasing his updated Red Dwarf biography, to cover the new series as well (The Man in the Rubber Mask), the original was very good, which I bought second hand for 50p.

The second recent TMNT gn; I thought I'd read it :oops:

After that, part four. And finishing the final pages of The Week collection would be a good idea...

Finished Turtles vol. 4, and it's good but we're still on backstory! I can't wait until everyone's fully established and we can get on to story arcs proper. 5 isn't out until June :( , though I have ordered a HB Transformers collection :D

Yes, but did you read your Preacher book? I can't remember if you said you did or not....

That would be books (think I've got the whole run), and that would be 'no' :oops:

I've been reading all sorts of Ennis stuff though in the meantime; The Pro, Fury, Punisher, The Boys, the Ulster-set comics, his runs on, well, whatever... :)

Frankly, Preacher micturates over all of that. There is nothing you're reading/watching now that is better than Preacher.

I know there's a few fans on here. The new Jack Reacher book 'Never Go Back' is due out early August.

I imagine there'll be a few less fans if the new book has a pic of Tom Cruise on the cover. ;)

Still reading Patrick Moore's autobiography - in reduced stints (still not used to reading on a backlit kindle) - it's very enjoyable.
