I have kidney stones and was in the hospital all last week. No books have been read, my bed and Zofran as well as my urologist are my best friends right now. Also knitting and cuddles with my cats.

I've listened to a little bit more of Spinning Silver though, but... yeah...

'A Night In Lonesome October.' Roger Zelazny. Short and easy read. 31 chapters, one for each day of the month. Jack the Ripper and Baron von Frankenstein are neighbors, and the book is narrated by Jack's talking dog.

one of the all-time greats, and an annual re-read for me.
