Typically I only check in at the beginning of the month with these threads and usually mainly due to my bad luck I’m reading or about to read something absolutely terrible. However I have just read an absolutely brilliant book, one so good that I felt the need to rush out and share it with people. After years of it being on my “I should read that sometime” list I finally got to the often recommended Bridge of Birds and it was everything that it was promised to be. It was witty, charming, more clever than it had any right to be, sorrowful, and touching. It’s magnificent and I could not put it down.
So there you go, I do read great books occasionally. 
And continuing that theme I’m about to read the last two volumes in the Lone Wolf and Cub graphic novel series but that may deserve a thread of its own when I finally finish it. For prose novels my next one is Mythago Woods.
