The Mistletoe Bride was good. A selection of short ghost stories and one play, the stories were interesting and well-written. It almost matched Stone Matress.

I finished it the day before yesterday. Yesterday we went to Portovenere – but, like posts about some restaurants, I shall tell you about that when I’m in front of a proper keyboard – so no reading yesterday.

This morning I’ve started The Buried Giant by Kazuo Ishiguro.

But it seems the books I enjoyed most this summer were the books of short stories, which I wouldn’t have expected.
