Highly recommend Disorder by Helen Thompson, and pretty much everything written by John Gray.

I’m on my second reading and only read it first a few months back.

I just started Irvine Welsh’s latest book - Men In Love. I usually love settling in with these characters. I feel like I’ve grown up with them having first read Trainspotting in 1993 and reading everything that came after (varying quality). I’m really struggling to get into this one though.

The new Disco Pogo. A really good edition. Feels glossier too.

If it’s any interest you can pickup their Aphex book new on eBay for under a fiver (instead of £30 everywhere else). Wasn’t planning on buying it really but came across it somehow and thought I might as well.

Good read that. There’s also a decent doc on iPlayer about his life. And he meets a lady whose child he wasn’t able to save years ago and who blamed him.

It was on Amazon a while back ridiculously cheap too. They’ll nabbed a copy. Yet to properly sit down with it.

I thought this was really poor and easily his worst book so far. It just kind of meanders along.

Hard to disagree with the sentiment.

dr. rob got me with this story. all of my relationships are built around music, and the things you do while listening to music. all of the people i love have a wealth of songs woven around them, whether they know it or not. people i no longer am connected to are tethered by songs i can never forget. the ballad of bobby & davey is all about that, in delightful detail.
