I’m not a huge fan of chevalier, Iain banks, Ali smith *or* Dan Brown :-) I don’t think there’s anything I’ve refused to read yet though. I’m on the book for every year of your life thread and the unofficial book club thread. Which means I’m on more book threads than running threads by a comfortable margin

It might have been pronounced bike-it-sparky, which is 4 syllables.

Might be a North/South divide on byeckitsparky - I think the southern version is something like ‘dear me, it’s a bit chilly’. Or it was when I lived in the south, anyway. ;-)

Badger, you were right about Kraken. The main character has definitely developed into a much more interesting chap. Also the book has more weird stuff now, which I approve of :-)

Welcome to the thread ByEck!

Southerner here familiar with its parky. Though that might have something to do with my Irish roots
