Alexander McCall Smith : a good find ! I'll try them
The Curious Incident .. : Sounds great, I am going to try it
Paddy Clark Ha Ha Ha .. doesn't sound at all like 'Light reading', but sounds like a very good book, so I'll read it sometime.
View With a Grain of Sand Poems by a Nobel Prizewinner for light reading ? No thanks ! but perhaps I'll get around to trying it someday.
I'm very glad to have got introduced to interesting new authors. Look for reviews on the blog later

Some of it will be serious. But try this...
When I pronounce the word Future,
the first syllable already belongs to the past.
When I pronounce the word Silence,
I destroy it.
When I pronounce the word Nothing,
I make something no nonbeing can hold.
Or this....
Some -
thus not all. Not even the majority of all but the minority.
Not counting schools, where one has to,
and the poets themselves,
there might be two people per thousand.
Like -
but one also likes chicken soup with noodles,
one likes compliments and the color blue,
one likes an old scarf,
one likes having the upper hand,
one likes stroking a dog.
Poetry -
but what is poetry.
Many shaky answers
have been given to this question.
But I don't know and don't know and hold on to it
like to a sustaining railing.
