Heard of nearly all and actually watched 17 of them. But I probably watch too much TV!

Not heard of all of them and have only watched one, Schitt's Creek, which I loved.

Finished my Sudanese book, really struggled to finish it. It's a short book and has some beautiful writing but the subject matter made it really grim and hard going. I can see that it's an important book and had a lot to say about the problems of colonisation but it was just too much for me. Once again I'm reminded how lucky I am as a woman to live here and now!

I'm now reading the 3rd story from TCTBTC and despite the horror aspect I'm finding these much more cheerful. Maybe I'm a bit warped? ;-)

Racing through TCTBTC - some of the stories are great if a bit scary. Next up for me will be DallerGut Dream Department Store.
