The Shack is back

Well nearly. Haven’t quite finished yet but as post Christmas clear-ups go it’s not bad. Also did a bit of draught proofing to make it cosier.

Started a new novel today, The Fifth Season by N K Jemisin. A multi award winner in the fantasy and sci-fi field she is touted as the successor to Ursula Le Guin. Anyway it is very readable and a bit of a page turner. I also have Elif Shafak’s latest on the go.
