I have just finished re-reading Mervyn Peak’s Gormenghast trilogy. I’m not sure how many times I’ve read it over the last thirty years, but it just keeps getting better! Now I’m starting to read Look me in the eye, an autobiography of an Aspie. Yuka says it is great!

It's been a long time since I read Gormenghast; I remember liking the first book best, though....

Me too, but I'm older now... and find the third book most interesting, and scary.

Did you watch the miniseries? I don't believe I have, oddly enough. Now I'm going to have to go check Netflix and see (a) whether it's available and, if so, (b) whether I've rented it and forgotten it or just not rented it.
