That’s why my shoes all wear out so soon now!
“Before going into beta” is HIGHLY optimistic lol
I’ve always heard Wodehouse mentioned in the context of other authors like Pratchett and Adams.
What book would you recommend as a good starter?
I have to admit to giving up on the Fifth Season as well but I’m going to make another attempt soon!
Would the Australian (NSW) laws apply here because that’s where it happened? They updated their sexual consent laws not long ago and their easy reader is pretty clear that a kiss is considered part of that. Not sure how it would be charged under the criminal code: https://dcj.nsw.gov.au/documents/children-and-families/family-domestic-and-sexual-violence/domestic-and-sexual-violence-hotlines/dcj_easy_read_sexual_consent_digital_accessible.pdf
Ah yes, I’ve just been through that Libby wait with all the Silo books! Hope it goes quickly for you. :)
From Australia:
Cloudstreet by Tim Winton. Two very different families leave the country for the bright lights of Perth
Boy Swallows Universe by Trent Dalton. A story about growing up in Brisbane on the rough side of town.
For the Term of his Natural Life by Marcus Clarke. Very readable novel about Australia’s convict history. I didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I did.
Red Rising series by Pierce Brown. It’s like stratified human civilisation / Roman Empire in Space. First book is very Hunger Games-y but the rest of the series is excellent.
2 dead :(
New Zealand Police. @nzpolice
The offender has moved through the building site and continued to discharge his firearm.
Upon reaching the upper levels of the building, the male has contained himself within the elevator shaft and our staff have attempted to engage with him.
Further shots were fired from the male and he was located deceased a short time later.
