Entry #78

Listening to:
Bach, Cello suite no. 4 in E flat, BWV 1010.
To read next:
Our village by Mary Mitford. This is another volume courtesy of the Folio Society. It's a collection of pieces that were written in the early 19th century for regular publication in a magazine. The pieces are generally humorous accounts of life in the author's village.

(Custom would have this annoucement occur after announcing the completion of my last book read, but I forgot on Monday, and decided that I didn't want to retrospectively change the entry.)

Stephen King (yes, the horror author) has written a balanced, and interesting, review of the latest Harry Potter book.

Being from roughly that neck of the woods myself, I was interested to read Bill Bryson on Sydney (excerpted from the National Geographic paper edition). Looking out my window at yet another grey and miserable sky, the thought of Sydney is really quite appealing.
