    Anyone on here checking out Hytale?

    I like the BBC Radio adaptations. But I find the narration of audiobooks too hit and miss for me to get invested. I have Neverwhere read by Neil Gaimen and it is [for me] unlistenable. No doubt he is reading it correctly, but it is not the sounds I heard when reading the book. And a version of...

    Most recent books you bought.

    Not a book really [although there is a small on in the box], but a Buffy the Vampire Slayer Tarot deck. It is a mixture of interesting and nostalgic to see how the cards are interpreted from the BtVS world.

    Food combos that you didn't think would work but you like?
