I have one (apart from the writing book) that I picked up from a fete secondhand bookstall. I’ve never read it, it appears to be one of the lowest rates of his books and, after reading his badly-written book on writing, I’m not inclined to get into it.

Finished TGOS took me back to a time when I read voraciously and enjoyed most of what I read. Reading mostly seems harder work these days which is a pity

I am here to report that I am enjoying Eleanor Oliphant, despite the inconsistencies. It's a very likable story. I even did a proper LOL this morning, much to my surprise.
