A list of books I've read recently with some occasional gibberish thrown in.

HANGMAN'S HOLIDAY - Dorothy L Sayers
In twelve ingenious and baffling tales Dorothy L. Sayers demonstrates her mastery of the short, sharp story.
This is a good short story collection, their are four stories featuring Lord Peter Wimsey, six featuring the travelling wine salesman Montague Egg and two standalone tales.
The Montegue Egg stories are the most enjoyable, the little salesman seems to stumble across murder and murderers where ever he goes. Egg is a good character and its a shame Sayers didn't write more featuring him.
As stated a good collection, ideal for a flight or the bathroom.
