Rated The Invisible Library 7/10
<div>Pleasantly surprised by this one, as it was suggested to me by someone I don't really know, but we are in the same Bluesky book group. It's fun. Sort of reminds me of a Doctor Who audio adventure I heard once (which now I can't remember the title, sorry. Vibe-based memory), but is an interesting premise in its own right. I'll probably read the next in the series. </div>

Rated Chinaman: The Legend of Pradeep Mathew 8/10
This is a long novel, and because I'm not overly familiar with Sri Lanka or cricket, I would sometimes think, <i>I'm not sure what he's talking about or what exactly is going on</i>, yet I was enjoying myself. It takes a special sort of outstanding writer to make a non-sport person love reading 400 pages filled with it. Karunatilaka imbues W.G.'s voice with a subtle humor throughout, even as the man's health deteriorates.<br><br>(My full review can be found at <a href="http://glorifiedloveletters.blogspot.com/2012/08/the-legend-of-pradeep-mathew-by-shehan.html">Glorified Love Letters</a>.)
