More than usual, the dodgy back at the beginning of the month allowed for plenty of reading and DVD watching. Half a Crown and Year of Our War were both very good - Alice in Sunderland is really something else, and very impressive. It made such an impression I dreamt of Bryan that night. I picked up Bulletproof Monk from the RSPCA bookshop. I knew I'd heard good reviews or bad of it, but couldn't remember which, and have now formed my own.

Watched Inception twice, the second still left me with questions about it...
