Have just started Luck in the Shadows.
Made me grin because I am now trying to work out which character is gay (am I really that transparent?)

Reminded me of From Ducsk Til Dawn - I knew there were wampyrs in it, but that was all. Sat down in cinema and thought, "Oh, vampires run an off-licence, cool!" Then "Bank robbers are vampires, cool!" Then "Kidnapped women is actually a vampire, cool!" and finally "Oh okay, family in camper van. They must be vampires, right? "Shut the fucking door!................. Please.""

So I half expect the bender is yet to arrive.
Loving it already though.

A Hologram for the King - by Dave Eggers.

Interesting glimpses into a world both familiar and foreign. Brings back memories of my time there and marriage to a Saudi. Very well written book.
