I picked up Delia's Shadow (and both sequels) and the C.S. Harris series on the weight of your recommendations, and loved them. Thank you! You might enjoy The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers.

Oh, good; I'm glad you enjoyed them.

I'll check it out, thanks!

Moon over Soho

So, are you enjoying the Ben Aaronovitch books? And are you reading them or listening to them? (Do you even _do_ audio books, other than as a medium to sell your own?)

I admit to quite liking the books. I find the Peter Grant character, especially his comments on police procedure and language, both compelling and funny.

I'm having a good time with them; I'm very comfortable with Peter, and the stories keep surprising me, so I'll read on. Next up is Whispers Under Ground.

I'm afraid I don't read audiobooks. Possibly I would, if I had a long driving commute, but it's not really that far from the kitchen to my office.

Ah, it's how I get through boring tasks or workouts. I do sometimes have a 4 hour commute, but only about once a month. However, listening to a good book makes the morning swim WAY easier. (And in the case of the Aaronovitch books, Kobna Holdbrook-Smith is a superb reader for them.)

When faced with boring tasks or exercise, my default is to turn on music. Shuffle is awesome.
