It's been difficult to find time to read over the last couple of weeks. I thought my three days in Bangkok might see me making significant progress in Ken Follett's The Pillars of the Earth, which I took along with me for whatever spare moments presented themselves, but it wasn't to be. I stayed in touch with the narrative with a bit of late night reading, but I'm talking about just three or four pages each time at best.
Having said that, I was gripped enough by the story to want to read on, and I'm now moving into the last 200 pages. Happily, I haven't a clue how it will all turn out, except being reasonably sure the bad guys (of whom there are more than a few) will get their comeuppance. But I'm not sure that the good guys will live happily ever after, even in the mildest sense. Or that any cathedral will actually get built.
