I've just started reading The Wager. I'm a sucker for ship based media, and I'm hoping this'll be no exception.

It's my third book of the year after previously reading both A Clash of Kings and How to get rid of a president

I remember when I read it the first time I was struggling with some of the dense description but it doesn't bother me now (or I haven't got to that bit yet)!

It makes me wonder if I'd enjoy Brave New World more as an adult, we were made to read it at school by our RE teacher (when we were about 15/16) and I found it so dreary :D

Brave new world is definitely a book you get different things from as an adult. It's also a pretty quick read. I'd definitely recommend taking another look.
