[books 2013] Moon Over Soho

26. Moon Over Soho by Ben Aaronovitch

Second in the PC Peter Grant series featuring the apprentice wizard with the Metropolitan Police. Or, what I did at the weekend.

Most books that take this little time to read are disposable and not actually terribly good. These are. They are so very London - this one is set in the dodgy clubs of Soho as Grant investigates the deaths of several jazz musicians. There are good one-liners and some thought-provoking bits. And lots of laughs.

Can't wait till volume 4 comes out in July.

April reading

6 books total, 1 non-fiction.
1 borrowed from friends, 3 from the library. So only knocked two out of the two-read pile. Which I cannot remember if I added to or not.

Amazon keep sending me "pre-order this now" emails. I KNOW, ALREADY.

I have pre-ordered it from the library on the grounds tahtit will take 3 hours to read. So far there are fewer reservations than copies on order so I should get it within the first week. It is entirely possible that I might fall into Foyle's and buy it on the day of release anyway.
