Description

We've got some great variety this week, from a Japanese novel exploring the nature of comedy to literary fiction set in Bristol, England, that explores the boredom of being a housewife in a really beautiful way. Also, big kudos to Sam for banging out a 700-page brick in two weeks and to Hannah for reading a book about, like, British royalty, that she rated with a vacuum cleaner's whine. This fortnight, we read:

1. "Spark," by Naoki Matayoshi
2. "The Land in Winter," by Andrew Miller
3. "The Will of the Many," by James Islington
4. "The Heir Apparent," by Rebecca Armitage

What sound effects did we give each of these books? You'll just have to listen and find out!
