Sadly, my books have been limited to non-fiction and really tech or economics related. :(
Can't seem to be able to focus on fictions anymore for some reason -- maybe because I am used to binge-watching on Netflix or other streaming services.
Used to love them; savouring them like a good red, and now I dont even drink reds anymore. Dain bramage after my bike accident!
