John Abrahams, "The Abandoned Maze"

What they call a 'slim volume' - a small collection of poems. Most of them felt verbose and contrived, but I did like 'The Green Rain'.

This is a hitch-hiking BookCrossing book, which is trying to get to Arbroath. I'm releasing it at Holyhead, which is a bit out of its way, but where it may get picked up by someone who's heading to Scotland one way or another.

Agatha Christie, "Murder is Easy"

Re-read - frustratingly, I remembered whodunnit half way through, which made it less fun. It's interesting the things you pick up on as an adult that you didn't as a child - the coding of Mr Ellsworthy, for example - and how it can make you cringe...

I'll be releasing this at the BookCrossing convention in Dublin.
