I'm reading 'Don Quixote' by Cervantes. It's incredibly funny and entertaining but, being over 500 years old, it's (obviously) not very "pc"

 

Pedantry point: it's also not more than 500 years old since Cervantes was born in 1547 and died in 1616. Unless you've come from the future Terminator-style to post this.

I acquired 'Sheffield - a Pocket Miscellany' by Jonathen Skews. Only 128 pages but contains interesting facts about Sheffield. Like Sandygate's football ground being the oldest football ground in the world, and that, in 1966, Abbeydale was the home of the Argentinian and Swiss teams during the World Cup.

The Monster in the Box, Ruth Rendell's latest Wexford novel.

 

Her latest Wexford is 'The Vault' released last year:) Excellent and well worth the read, it's a kind of sequel to her 1998 standalone novel 'A sight for sore eyes'; which is brilliant. I bought both novels together as a set in Tesco's last week for £3.96 total bargain:D
