About half way. The narrator has said a couple of things which make me want to slap him. I have no idea whether they're author inserts or characterization.

There's a charity shop a few hundred yards from me. I give them my old-and-won't-read-again books and they send them off to live on a farm. Probably.

Made a good start to the year, first book started and finished....I suspect my reading for the rest of 2017 might slow down now that work gets in the way. However if I do rattle through another I might give Nod a go, albeit I missed the 99p boat....

I'm reading Autumn by Ali Smith before I get to Nod. It's rather odd, but probably the best thing I've read that captures the way your mind drifts when you're dreaming.

I was going to co-read with Nod as my daytime book, but I think I'll wait until I finish it. I feel like I need all of my brain for Ali Smith.
The Essex Serpent is an Amazon 99p offer at the moment (sorry Bint).

*so so tempted*

But I really prefer reading physical books so I'll try and hold off for the paperback.

Enjoying Nod so far but he does chuck in some odd phrasing every now and again.
