(Thinks) No, I don't think I've had the chance to read any book that wasn't work-related aimed at the over-tens this year.

I might have read the Silverberg, but like you I can't remember a thing about it.

Poor Things was the first Alasdair Gray I read, I think.

Diary of a Nobody was amusing rather than funny. I read it recovering from a fever a couple of Christmasses ago.

I tend to buy Noons when I see cheap s/h copies, but only because I know somewhere that will buy them for more. I got along with the style for one book, but not a whole career.
