I have a horrible tendency to just drop off during night feeds, which ends badly as I have a windy baby who, if not thoroughly burped, pukes everywhere. I have solved this by reading exciting books, but I am now a bit stuck for what next. Ones that have helped are:
The hunger games trilogy (loved them)
Northern lights (prob my favourite books ever)
Elizabeth Peters Amelia Peabody books (so funny)
Terry pratchett
David eddings polagara etc books
Station eleven
All georgette heyer
Nancy Mitford
I'll read any genre really although I don't like violence and I hate predictable "twists" (midnight rose, I am looking at you!!). They don't need to be impeccably crafted but can't be so badly written it's irritating. What they must have is punchy, quick-moving plots!!! I like funny books but it's not essential. And they can't be too hard going as it is for 2 am and I am not at my sharpest!
I would be very grateful for any suggestions!!!
