I've requested "Hotel" and the first George Smile book now! Hopefully they'll come in before I leave.
I'd been thinking I should give le Carre's work a better chance. I watched Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy, and it seemed like it should be right up my alley, exactly the sort of thing I'd enjoy - and all the more so with the likes of Benedict Cumberbatch and Colin Firth in it. But for whatever reason I just... could not connect with it. I think part of that miiiiight be attributable to the fact that I was having trouble hearing what people were saying for a good part of it. XP So I'm looking forward to seeing what the first book's like.
