Yes, but at the time of posting I forgot the name :D
After finishing Jean-Christophe Grange's "Die Purpurnen Flüsse" yesterday, I started to re-read a book from a favourite author of mine:

Val McDermid's "The Distant Echo".
Last time I tried to read some blogs as https://jeffjeremy.blogspot.com/ about IT technologies and some gambling news. My brother works in IT and I was advised by him to read it. But I understand I'm not very interesting in it. I prefer something like music blogs or modern art news.
