Well, there is a month of reading I will never get back..... I finished the Aurora winner 'A Turn Of Light' this morning. Really not my kind if book, weighing in at over 800 pages it's clear the author put in every possible detail they'd thought of in but the book definitely needed re-editing. First 100 pages were a confused mess, not an awful lot happens in the book and the lead character is stupid and annoying....
