The Travelling Cat Chronicles by Hiro Arikawa - no wonder this was made a film. I have just found out the author is female.
A History of Heavy Metal by Andrew O'Neill - the cover says 'Absolutely hilarious'. Well, not 'absolutely' for a non-native speaker of English. But quite hilarious if you have a faint idea about some if the names in the book. (I haven't finished this one yet).
Always love to see what you're reading, Moni! I'm reading Octavia Butler's "Kindred" right now. They've just made it into a movie (on Netflix, maybe??), but I'll probably not watch it. I prefer books usually. ;)
@30pics4jackiesdiamond I see: he is a writer too. I have never heard of him. But i did see he was quoted on the cover, of course. I was just not curious to look him up.
Not a reader myself but the others of the family are.
Our country in South Africa share a common history.
The Dutch Cape Colony (officially: Tussenstation Kaap de Goede Hoop) was a refreshment or intermediate station of the Vereenigde Oostindische Compagnie (VOC) around Cape Town in present-day South Africa. The area was in Dutch hands from April 6, 1652 to August 7, 1795. Much of the Dutch architecture from those day`s was imported.
Wonder how much Neil Gaiman was paid for that review???
Who's Neil Gaiman?
