My Family and Other Animals - I enjoyed the family interactions more than the 10-year-old boy obsession with animals (particularly insects), but will definitely recommend to people who like the outdoors and natural history more than I do.
The Song of Achilles - Definitely an strong option for MWT fans, specifically those with an interest in Greek mythology and the ancient classics (Illiad). Likely to be a particular favorite for those in the Kamet and Costis have a relationship that extends beyond friendship camp.
All Systems Red - Awesome first line. Read practically in one sitting. Going to put the next on hold. May be the only work of fiction I get my husband to read this year.
Jeeves and the King of Clubs - Not as good as Francis Spufford writing in the style of C.S. Lewis, but well done. Bertie wasn't quite spot-on, but overall it was a lot of fun and I'd happily read another.
Now I've started Deeplight by Frances Hardinge, which a blogger I follow because she's an MWT fan recommended. Anyone else read it?
Need I say I'm enjoying the long, holiday weekend?
