I read the first 20-odd pages of the Benn book when I first got it, I quite liked it but put it aside. I don't have nay more in the series, and no plans to get them either. Mills looks good, but maybe a bit intense - I want some quicker reads at the minute. col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-84066013963198807062016-01-12T22:04:54.137-08:002016-01-12T22:04:54.137-08:00I love that Nathanael West cover.
