@eclectech Sounds like a plan

Top tip for the day: find a mossy hole and a book.
This is one of my more blatant semi-autobiographical Friend posts, but FWIW I heartily recommend Jasper Fforde's books. They are the quirkiest dystopias out there.
I am super excited to be reading Red Side Story as it's the follow on to a particular favourite, and I had been looking out for it for years (part one was about 15 years ago) then totally missed the fact it had finally been released until a couple of weeks ago.
Surprise sequel! Yay!

In the interests of accuracy, I am not actually sitting in a mossy hole, although the place could probably do with a dust & hoover.

@eclectech Surprise sequel ftw \o/
Finding a mossy hole does sound more and more attractive.

@eclectech At least you're probably not honked at with a trumpet either

@LappenjammerDieZweite I was *so* excited to find that it had finally been written, and very good timing for distraction purposes.

@eclectech we had to wait so long for Red Side Story - but it was worth it!

@clare_hooley It is proving a splendid distraction this week. I still can't believe I missed it coming out though

@eclectech Fforde is Ffantastic! You might also like Alan Gordonโs Fool series. Different age but I have the same delight while reading them.

@eclectech yes!! Shades of Grey was so WEIRD, and I started reading it thinking it was just quirky fluff but then as more of the past gets hinted at, it draws you right in. I have the sequel on my to-read list too, hope you enjoy it!

@35millimetre Hah, yes. I *loved* Shades of Grey, and am thoroughly enjoying Red Side story.
Early Riser is worth a read if you've not read it too. It had the same offbeat vibe as Shades of Grey for me.
(tbf, I love all the Thursday Next books too, but slightly prefer the others)
-
@AnguaDelphine It is most enjoyable so far. A new Thursday Next will be a treat too.

@eclectech stay away from my mossy hole and donโt touch my sporangia

@eclectech @35millimetre Omg. I love the Thursday Next ones more than all the others, and thereโs a final one of those coming out in September.
I have it on preorder. -

@eclectech ok, but why the book?

@eclectech I saw a little boy sitting in a monster's open mouth as he reads a book.
