Wedding Woes

Since it's slow, and I'm tired of proof reading event rules, I have 1.5 book reviews

I read about 1/2 of Hugh Laurie (yes, that actor guy)'s first novel, The Gun Seller.
The jury was out, but, thus far, I *really* rather like it.  It's like...the best of Wodehouse (disclaimer, I really did not enjoy my first foray into wodehouse, so it may be a bad comparison) meets a London based Jack Reacher novel.

I'm not sure if it'll stay good, the plot is a bit 'eh, but the turns of phrase are enough to have me enjoying it.  

I read Enchanted by Alethea Kontis and enjoyed it enough to add the next book to my amazon wishlist--it's free if you have amazon prime, so, minimal outlay to see if you like it.
It's a YA book, it revolves around a fairy tale world (that manages not to feel like a Tolkien ripoff or a Jasper Fforde novel) and it's a bit predictable, but a fun little read.
(Although, disclaimer here too, I have the 'advance reader copy' that someone who is a reader locally gives to the library book sale.  There's an off chance it was revised throughly later.  Unlikely, but possible.  Although I do love whoever donates these to said booksale)
