How do you remember all this?! I can barely remember what I read yesterday.

I've just started Riddley Walker, though I confess I'm not too keen on it so may not get beyond 30 pages. I rarely give up on a book, but it's happened several times in the last month. I even postponed finishing Douglas Coupland's Hey Nostradamus! after receiving it for Christmas because it's just so bloody bleak. Shame on me.
