What are we reading in January?

Happy New Year, everyone! What are you reading to kick off 2021? I'm starting with Mavis Doriel Hay's Death on the Cherwell. Share what you're reading in January below!

I am reading Fishing for Trouble by Elizabeth Logan. Happy 2021!

Happy New Year! I'm reading Henry Green's Living.

Happy New Year! I'm reading Intervention by Julian May and listening to the audiobook White Fire by Preston/Child

Happy New Year !
I'm reading In The Name of Truth and trying not to think of the return to the virtual office on Monday.

I'm starting with An Unsafe Haven which is up for discussion via Shelterbox Book club next week.

Happy New Year!

I'm starting with Washington Black by Esi Edugyan and The Overstory by Richard Powers for my zoom book clubs this month.

I am starting with Ring of Bright Water by Gavin Maxwell and Red Country by Joe Abercrombie. I also squeezed in the very short A Modest Proposal by Jonathan Swift.

>4 majkia: Intervention is a blast from the distant past for me!

Good luck to everyone with their reading in 2021!

I've finished Talk Stories which is a collection of New Yorker gossip columns from the 1970s.

I’m chipping away at The Big Book of Espionage, by Otto Penzler. It’s like an enormous Christmas dinner; I keep feeling full but having to go back for just one more bite!

I'm reading several books in small chunks:

The Art of the Hobbit on Tolkien's own illustrations of The Hobbit
Stardust by Neil Gaiman because the language is too beautiful to read it quickly
Altenglisches Elementarbuch, an introduction to Old English

Whenever I'm tired of one I continue with the other!

Have a great start to 2021 everyone, and happy reading!!!

I'm reading The Elephant Whisperer by Lawrence Anthony for my book club next week and Glass Houses by Louise Penny.

I'm reading Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern World by Jack Weatherford today.

I've ignored the household chores and finished In the Name of Truth. Books 9 and 10 are being released this month. My next read will be These Women.

I read children's novel The Name of this Book is Secret by Pseudonymous Bosch (a splendid nom de plume!), which was "Suggested by a person from another generation" for BingoDOG as a rec from scaifea's 12 year old son, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I'm alternating between The Address Book: What Street Addresses Reveal about Identity, Race, Wealth, and Power (for a Zoom book club) and The Golden Egg for a Brunetti group read in the 75ers group.

I'm trying to finish A Town Like Alice, which I started last year for the April GeoKIT and then kept getting distracted!

Apparently The Westing Game is due back at the library today and I can't renew, so looks like a blitz read is in order! I think I can do it.

I finished Dear Miss Kopp by Amy Stewart yesterday.
I won't include year-long or multi-month reads here (Bible, devotional books, and huge short story collection), but others are:
The Address Book by Deirdre Mask
Anchored in Jesus by Johnny Hunt
The Time Traveler's Guide to Medieval England by Ian Mortimer
Monk's Hood by Ellis Peters
Up soon are:
The Missing American by Kwei Quartey
The Conquering Family by Thomas B. Costain

I read The White Darkness by David Grann, which was recced to me by LittleTaiko. It's a well written short book of 143 pages, including many photos, about Antarctic walker Henry Worsley and his polar expeditions.

I havn’t been around in many years. I decided I need less screen time, so I’m hoping a little reading challenge will get me to turn away from my screens. Or I’ll just read about what you are all reading...

I’m half way through The Swan Thieves by Elizabeth Kostova.

>21 arrwa: Welcome! I have to say, reading about other people's reading has made up most of my reading so far this year ;)

Decisions, decisions... I'd like to read something quick, so I might get one of my Doctor Who comics out, then finally watch the New Year's Day special, which is waiting for me on the PVR.

I'm reading Queens of the Conquest about the first Queens after the Norman Conquest. Seemingly most of them are called Matilda! 1 queen down.

I finished White Fire and am now listening to The Long Way Home by Louise Penny. Also, still reading Intervention by Julian May.

I finished In The Name of Truth, the excellent These Women, and just started A Good Neighborhood. I expect the reading frenzy will slow down with the return to the virtual office, but I think I'm off to a good start.

I'm starting off with Just Another Soldier by Deader Homes and Gardens, which is the fourth volume of the Southern Ghost Hunter Mystery series by Angie Fox (which I've really enjoyed).

With any luck, I'll also get to Water Logic, The Doll's House, The Colleen Colgan Chronicles Book 1, and Accra Noir this month.

I've also got Chernobyl Prayer on the go, it's harrowing and fascinating.

I’m reading In the Kingdom of Ice.

I'm about to start Sex and Vanity by Kevin Kwan.

I finished The Address Book this afternoon. Still reading The Golden Egg.

I read Mooncop by Tom Gauld. A short graphic novel about, unsurprisingly, a policeman on the moon.

I finished Fishing for Trouble: An Alaskan Diner Mystery and I am currently reading Her Amish Wedding Quilt.

I read Annie John by Jamaica Kincaid, which is a bildungsroman set in Antigua.

Today I'm starting my read of Wilde Rosen - Meine Emancipation by Louise Aston. So far, I'm the only one who has added this to a LibraryThing library, although I still need to have a look if there are any combinations to be done.
When I'm back to work next week (we'll see if in person or virtually, it's not decided as of now) I'll be teaching extracts of this as part of a course on the period of Vormärz and I wanted to read the whole thing before I do. Louise Aston was actively promoting women's rights in the mid-1800s, so I'm curious to read more of her, because I never heard about her before this course was created and she was included in the curriculum!

I read science fiction novella To be Taught, if Fortunate by Becky Chambers.

I'm currently reading The Potter's Field by Ellis Peters.

I finished Her Amish Wedding Quilt which I enjoyed. I am currently reading Vittoria Cottage and getting reacquainted with D. E. Stevenson. The intro by Alexander McCall Smith was also quite well done, and I learned about the author's life and background. I plan to read the other two in this series, which feature some of the same characters.

Currently I am reading a rather mindless alien invastion story with In the After and I am just about to start Poppet by Mo Hayder.

I'm reading a very meta book right now -- The Pleasures of Reading in an Age of Distraction by Alan Jacobs.

I read a collection of Tom Gauld's single page newspaper and magazine cartoons, You're All Just Jealous of My Jetpack, which is clever and witty and frequently made me laugh aloud. It includes many literary parodies so fills the "Arts and recreation" square. 5*

Today in "hurry up and read this because it's due back today", I will attempt to read On Risk, by Mark Kingwell. I may count it for the January GenreCAT because it's not a type of non-fiction I read often. It's part of a series called Field Notes, published by Biblioasis: https://www.cbc.ca/books/biblioasis-launching-field-notes-a-new-series-of-short-...

I finished Vittoria Cottage and I am currently reading His Accidental Amish Family which is turning out to be quite good.

Finished Queens of the Conquest next up is Help me!

I have finally finished my first book for this year - The Elephant Whisperer by Lawrence Anthony.

I'm reading How Right You Are, Jeeves (a.k.a. Jeeves in the Offing) by P.G. Wodehouse.

I read the esoteric, not necessarily recommended With My Dog Eyes and just finished a magically real The Enlightenment of the Greengage Tree.

My reading has slowed up this month. Here we are almost halfway through January and I've only read 4 books (and abandoned one). I'm reading Cruel as the Grave by Sharon Penman for HistoryCAT but not making much progress with it. Just started a P.G. Wodehouse for RandomCAT, which is going much better after abandoning Christopher Moore's A Dirty Job, which just wasn't for me.

I finished Dead as a Dinosaur and Five on a Treasure Island over the weekend. I'm currently reading The Western Wind for this month's HistoryCAT.

I finished His Accidental Amish Family (a misnomer, maybe unexpected or surprising, but not accidental). I am now reading Marrying Matthew which is about a mail order groom.

Picking at lots of little books. I think I might binge on The Case of the Left-Handed Lady, the second Enola Holmes mystery by Nancy Springer.

I'm reading Crazy Rich Asians among other books, not my normal type of read but quite fun.

Yesterday I finished Stardust by Neil Gaiman and liked it a lot despite a few things that irritated me a little.

Today I finished Wilde Rosen - Meine Emancipation by Louise Aston, written between 1846 and 1850. It includes twenty-four poems by her and a text she published in her defense after she was banished from Berlin for allegedly "founding an emancipated woman's club", smoking, wearing men's clothes and saying that she didn't believe in marriage.

Department of Mind-Blowing Theories is another winner from Tom Gauld. I almost like his science cartoons better than his book cartoons, and I REALLY like his book cartoons.

I'm reading Margaret Rogerson's An Enchantment of Ravens and liking it a lot so far!

I have five books on my January list (which is actually a hot pink square sticky note):

• In the Wake of the Plague (by Norman F. Cantor)
• Ministry of the Future (by Kim Stanley Robinson)
• Preacher Book One (by Garth Ennis & Steve Dillon)
• King John (by William Shakespeare)
• Homegoing (by Yaa Gyasi)

I’ve completed “King John” and ‘In the Wake of the Plague’ and; have started “Preacher” and ‘Homegoing’. It’s not clear if I will be able to manage ‘Ministry of the Future’ yet.

I'm about halfway through Nella Last's War by Nella Last. It's a dairy kept by an ordinary housewife during WWII. Next up is Memorial Drive: A Daughter's Memoir by Natasha Trethewey.

Today I will continue reading The Casual Vacancy. I started this is in the beginning of December but abandoned it when I was too stressed out to read, but I quite liked the beginning. I need a little comfort reading now because of how this week was and I think that's just the right book right now.

I am reading A Few Days in the Country by Elizabeth Harrower, Fascism: A Warning by Madeleine Albright and The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman.

Look at me posting outside my own thread for the first time as a new member of this group!

I've finished the following so far:
Parable of the Sower...a day late for the book club discussion
Queers Destroy Science Fiction!...carryover from 2020 (may it be the only carryover from that calamitous year)
3 Georgette Heyer novels: 1 new to me, 2 rereads

Currently reading:
The History of White People for another book club--4 more chapters before tomorrow night's discussion
make your place
Ken Hom's Asian Ingredients

Hoping to start shortly, this week even:
Kindred - library book checked out by neighbor to be returned by the end of the month
Ornament of the World - for HistoryCAT

Oh, wait! I see I posted in the HistoryCAT Wiki, so not my first time!

I finished Marrying Matthew which is the first in a new series about mail order grooms. I am now reading An English Murder by Cyril Hare (which was a BB from another LT-er) and First Light in Morning Star which is Book 2 in a series by Charlotte Hubbard.

I am currently reading a light romance with Restoring Grace by Katie Fforde and I am eyeballing Us Against You by Fredrik Backman and will most likely add it to my reading this evening.

I'm starting another (and the last) required read for the Vormärz course I'm teaching: Deutschland. Ein Wintermärchen by Heinrich Heine. It's a reread and I didn't like it the first time, but that was ten years ago, so maybe my experience will be different now.

I'm just starting Busman's Honeymoon by Dorothy L. Sayers.

Finished Henry VI, Part 1 this morning (getting my Plays category started early!) and started Harbour Street, by Ann Cleeves. Good to be hanging out with Vera for a while.

The Casual Vacancy is a DNF for me. I really, really misjudged that book - from the cover and the blurb I thought it was rather cosy, but it's absolutely not. The topic hits too close (I work in an area very similar to the one described) and moreover, I'm 100 pages in and am totally bored. It's not a book for me.

I'll probably read Peril at End House this weekend - as I said, I'm craving a comfort read so much and that one should tick the boxes, plus it counts for AlphaKIT.

I read The border : a journey around Russia through North Korea, China, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Ukraine, Belarus, Lithuania, Poland, Latvia, Estonia, Finland, Norway and the Northwest Passage, by Erika Fatland in the 2020 English translation.

I didn't enjoy this as much as the author's previous travel book Sovietistan because The Border concentrated on military history along a line on the map, while Sovietistan expanded more on the inhabitants of the places visited and their differing societies. The Border also covered more territory with which I already had basic familiarity, so it had less to offer me personally as a reader. Both books are equally well written and translated. 3.5*

I read the second collection of Tom Gauld's single page newspaper and magazine cartoons. I prefer his first and third collections but Baking with Kafka has plenty of Gauld's clever wit and it made me laugh aloud. 4*

I just finished An English Murder and now I am finishing First Light in Morning Star which is an Amish fiction novel.

This morning I finished 10% Happier, by Dan Harris. Not sure what to start next.

I'm reading There There. There are a lot of characters to keep track of, but I'm enjoying it.

I read Mischief Diary by Nada Faris, which is a Kuwaiti book of anecdotal short stories "based on real events" and told in the first person by one Nada Faris.

Ended up starting The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, by Muriel Spark. Nice to read in print for a change. I have a lot of ebooks out from the library (my choice, to avoid even curbside pickup during our provincial stay-at-home order).

I just finished The Western Wind, a nicely written non-linear historical novel. Next up is the latest Walt Longmire, Next to Last Stand.

I'm reading To Say nothing of the Dog which is a recommendation I got from someone on LT ages and ages ago. I'm a bit fussy about sci fi, but , so far, this is fitting all my criteria. You're allowed to break one law of physics, but if you do, all the rest has to logically hang together. She's allowing time travel, but has a back story about how it came to be invented and rules about what you can and can't do with it, so that suits my control freakery nicely.
It's listed as hilarious, but, so far, not so much. Waiting for it to take off.

>75 Helenliz: It's listed as hilarious, but, so far, not so much. That's honestly how I felt about Three Men in a Boat, so I'm not sure I'm the target audience for To Say Nothing of the Dog.

I read children's novel The Story of Tracy Beaker by Jacqueline Wilson which is about a girl in a children's home. 3*

>76 Jackie_K: I enjoyed To Say Nothing of the Dog but I didn't find it especially funny and I usually laugh at everything.

I finished First Light in Morning Star and I am now reading First Class Murder by Robin Stevens which is part of a YA series about two 13-year old girls who have formed a Detective Society and help to solve crimes. This one takes place on the Orient Express!

I'm in the process of reading Three Men in a Boat by Jerome K Jerome and The Prime Minister's Secret Agent by Susan Elia MacNeal. Then my neighbor gave me The Dutch House by Ann Patchett which is from the library so needs to be read soonest and I got a notice that Interior Chinatown by Charles Yu is ready for pickup.

This morning I finished The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, by Muriel Spark.

I am starting Irises by Franciso X Stork, a YA read about sisters, and I am also starting my read of The Romance of the Three Kingdoms for the Year-Long Group Read.

Yesterday I breezed through Mr. Malcolm's List by Suzanne Allain, a Regency romance that I found just okay. But now I'm rereading Megan Whalen Turner's The King of Attolia, which I already know I love, so things are looking up! :)

I read The Girl Who Fell to Earth by Sophia Al-Maria, an autobiographical account of a girl growing up in Tacoma, USA, and amongst Bedouin in Qatar. 4*

I just finished First Class Murder which is part of a mystery series for middle schoolers, featuring two 13-year-old girls who solve crimes. I also read What the Heart Wants which is set in the 1700's and is about early Amish settlers in America.

I started a new series with The Cold Cold Ground. I can tell that I will be reading the second book soon.

I am currently reading Dear Teacher by jack Sheffield and The Elephant's Girl by Celesta Rimington, which I am loving! It is good to read a YA book! I also read a picture book that was a gift from my sister Substitute Creacher which was hilarious.

Yesterday I read Covent Garden in the Snow by Jules Wake, and today I've started Ten Thousand Stitches by Olivia Atwater.

I am currently reading a British police procedural with A Darker Side by Shirley Wells, it's the 2nd in a series. I have also started my read of The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, I am planning on reading 10 chapters this month, have read 2 so far.

Re-reading Life, the Universe and Everything, by Douglas Adams.

I read The Desert and the Drum by Mbarek Ould Beyrouk about a young Bedouin woman in Mauritania. 5*

The library informs me that Flying Free, by Cecilia Aragon, is due back in three days. So I guess I should read it!

I finished Next to Last Stand by Craig Johnson last night and I've started The Plague and I by Betty MacDonald.

Finished To Say Nothing of the Dog, which was humourous, rather than hilarious. Next up, The Reluctant Widow.

I'm reading Caste. I've surprised myself by reading 3 non fiction books this month already. I usually only manage a handful a year.

I am almost finished Border Songs by Jim Lynch which is keeping a smile on my face and this morning I started The Women in Black by Madeline St. John.

I read The Lord Sorcier by Olivia Atwater, which is a freebie prequel novella to Atwater's Faerie Tales series and was drawn to my attention by christina_reads.

I finished The Elephant's Girl by Celesta Rimington, which I absolutely loved. It is a middle school level book about an adolescent girl who ends up living at a zoo where she ended up after a tornado. Her guardian works there, hence her living there too. The story tells about her search for her identity and involves magical realism.

I also read Stillmeadow Album by Gladys Taber, which is a photo-essay of b&w photos and narrative about the author's beloved New England home. She wrote many books about her home and its surroundings through the years; sadly, she is deceased now.

I am now reading The Last Garden in England which switches narrative among three women involved with the same home and garden between the 1900's and current.

I hadn't planned on reading The Devil's Cave by Martin Walker but somehow I am and Ive got about 100 pages to go. Then I will go to Memorial Day, I need to have it finished by Friday night bookclub.

I'm reading A Toast to Tomorrow by Manning Coles, a husband and wife writing team. It's for the 2 or more authors Bingo square. 40 C here today (104F), good reading weather.

>99 pamelad: Oh, I have been slowly making my way through the Hambledon series - thanks for the reminder! I'll slot The Fifth Man in for that square.

Finished The Reluctant Widow, next up is Square Haunting.

I'm reading A Toast to Tomorrow by Manning Coles, a husband and wife writing team. It's for the 2 or more authors Bingo square. 40 C here today (104F), good reading weather.

I've confused Manning Coles with G. D. H. Cole and M. I. Cole. Manning and Coles were neighbours who wrote spy novels. GDH and MI were a married couple who wrote plodding detective novels and belonged to the Detection Club.

Recently reviewed Celestial Bodies and just finished Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race Next up is The True Deceiver.

I read Travels with Herodotus by Ryszard Kapuscinski, which is a travel book describing how his reading of ancient Greek author Herodotus influenced his perceptions and writing as a journalist. 4*

Currently reading Indiscretion by Jude Morgan. Technically this is a re-read for me, but it's been so long that I don't really remember anything about it. I'm really enjoying it so far -- it's sort of Austen-esque historical fiction.

I am reading The Secret Place by Tana French and for the January MysteryKit, Mystery in the Channel by Freeman Wills Crofts.

>106 DeltaQueen50: I read Mystery in the Channel for that challenge, too - I'm looking forward to reading about what you think!

>107 MissBrangwen: It's taken me awhile to get into Mystery in the Channel but I am about to start Chapter 5 and I think with Inspector French taking over the case, things will start to liven up.

I am reading Dear Teacher by Jack Sheffield and A Wizard's Guide to Defensive Baking by T. Kingfisher. I picked it up on a whim and then could not stop reading this YA fantasy book.

I'm listening to Ministry of the Future (by Kim Stanley Robinson; narrated by multiple narrators) and; have slated a Kristen Proby romance novel for this weekend-- Thereby wrapping up the month with a couple for the AlphaKit challenge and logging in 12 titles for the month! :-)

>75 Helenliz:, >76 Jackie_K:, >77 spiralsheep:, and, >93 Helenliz: I know I recommended To Say Nothing of the Dog and doubtless described it as hilarious. Probably, memory burnishing up past experience to make it glow more than the original. I had no idea about Three Men and a Dog, so I really, really wasn't getting it in the first half of the book. In the second half, the pieces started to fall together, and I appreciated the overall pattern they made, which I did find to be funny. But I can see how "hilarious" totally oversold it. My apologies.

Frankly, nothing is as hilarious as the fateful dinner scene in A Civil Campaign by Lois McMaster Bujold, but it's book 13 in the Miles Vorkosigan series, and you really need to read at least the preceding book Komarr to fully appreciate it. Of course, the dedication gives it all away: "For Jane, Charlotte, Georgette and Dorothy - long may they rule."

I read Spell on Wheels Volume 2: Just to Get to You, by Kate Leth and Megan Levens, which is a fantasy comic set in contemporary USA about three "witches", each with a specific power, on a road trip. 3.5*

>111 justchris: Each sense of humour is very personal. And, yes, I also found A Civil Campaign amusing in places, although some of the Vorkosigan Saga would be better described as traumatising. I especially appreciated Memory but it wasn't an easy read emotionally.

>111 justchris: I don't remember it being you that sold me on it. Not sure we've shared many groups or threads before. I acquired the book when it appeared on the Pub's Bookcrossing shelf, and that was only after someone on LT suggested it to me as sci fi that I might enjoy, rather than because it was funny. That was easily a couple of years ago now.

I'm just starting Graham Greene's The End of the Affair. I remember loving it when I read it in college, but that was about 15 years ago, so I'm interested to see what I'll think on revisiting it now.

I am reading Dear Teacher by Jack Sheffield. It is entertaining and part of a series; this one is set in the 1970's. Cute, but not as good as Miss Read.

I'm reading How to Pronounce Knife, Psmith, Journalist, The Man Who Walked through Walls and Friends and Rivals: Four Great Australian Writers.

I am hoping to finish both Busman's Honeymoon and They Were Her Property by the end of the month.

>112 spiralsheep: Spell on Wheels #2 sounds interesting.

Yeah, I can see that lots of the Vorkosigan saga would be traumatizing. I also don't understand why people love Miles so much. He's such an asshole. I wouldn't like the series at all if it weren't for Cordelia. She's amazing. Outside of Cordelia's stories, the two Miles books I like best are Memory and A Civil Campaign, but yes, Memory isn't such an easy read, and I find it interesting that Lois McMaster Bujold has refused to have it included in any sort of omnibus and instead requires that it maintain its distinct identity and function as the hinge of the series.

>113 Helenliz: Oh yeah, definitely wasn't met that influenced you a couple years ago. I was just thinking that I mentioned it in the January LOL category challenge thread.

>117 cbl_tn: Oooh. I look forward to hearing your reactions to both books!

I am reading E. C. R. Lorac's Fire in the Thatch for the BingoDog Element square. Still reading The Man Who Walked Through Walls and stopping after each story, because there are things to think about that need to percolate. Looking forward to starting Voss.

>119 pamelad: ohhh, I've got the Lorac as well. Good call on the square filling.

I read The Girl Who Stole an Elephant by Nizrana Farouk, which is a children's novel (about 8-10 imo) set in a pre-colonial Sri Lankan kingdom (I think it's a somewhat alternative history medieval Sri Lanka with an idealistic amount of multicultural harmony and a vague nod towards Liluvati). The protagonist is a young Buddhist girl who tries her hand at some redistribution of wealth by thieving from the rich to give to the poor. Unfortunately, having worked her way up to stealing from the royal family, she manages to accidentally get her best friend, a young boy, sentenced to death. A prison break, elephant theft, and the invaluable assistance of their new acquaintance, a young Muslim girl, ensue. The ending is unlikely but sweet. 3*

I hard firmly planned to read The Dutch House by Ann Patchett next, even more so after some members of this group had written such great reviews, but I lost momentum on it - first I was stopped by migraines, and now I'm not feeling like such an earnest and, as I believe, quite sad novel (at least some reviews say so). I've had enough sadness this week and I definitely need something to lift me up.
I will spend my weekend with On A Rising Tide by Charlie Phillips - because what could be better now than the sea and dolphins :-) Moreover, I'm the only LT member who has added this book, so it's a good one for BingoDOG.

I think I'm going to start Linden Hills after finishing the very important Caste.

I'm re-reading the first Flavia de Luce novel, The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie. I requested it on impulse after mstrust read it recently, so that will eventually fill the "impulse read" square on my Bingo card :)

I've just finished The Prime Minister's Secret Agent by Susan Elia MacNeal which was one of my Alpha Kit books this month. I'm hoping to finish up Interior Chinatown by Charles Yu by tomorrow so I can start fresh in February.

I just finished Dear Teacher by Jack Sheffield and I am starting The Mystery of the Fire Dragon which is a Nancy Drew selection.

I read Tropical Fish by Doreen Baingana, which is a suite of short stories revolving around a Banyankole family of three young women growing up in Entebbe in Uganda in the 1980s. 4*

I read The Mystery of the Fire Dragon by Carolyn Keene which is a Nancy Drew novel. I am currently reading Manhunt by Janet Evanovich, which is a sort of silly romantic comedy novel. Before writing the Stephanie Plum novels, she wrote a series of romance novels for Loveswept. I almost put it down after the first pages that told me how gorgeous the heroine is and how luscious the hero looks, but once I got past that, it may be do-able. I am about 70 pages into it now.

I read Department of Mind-Blowing Theories by Tom Gauld, which is a collection of his single-page comics mostly published in New Scientist magazine. It probably goes without saying that I laughed aloud. 5*
