Half-term reading

The real joy of teachers' holidays is the ability to read and read and read. Here's what I've been reading over the last two weeks:

Fiction
Allingham   Look to the Lady
Adams   Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency
Wells   The Island of Dr Moreau
Marsh   Death at the Bar
Stevenson   Treasure Island
Eco   The Prague cemetary
Trollope   Barchester Towers (ongoing) 

Non-fiction
Sequin   The Chemistry of Plants
Cox   The elements on Earth (ongoing)
Kendrick and Davis   Fossil Plants
Stewart   Nature's numbers
Fortey   Survivors (ongoing)

I've also been listening to my John Eliot Gardner Bach cantata piligrimage CDs, but have only reached volume 5 of 27!
