    I've been listening to the audio book of 'October' whilst working at the allotment.

    Have you read 'The Kraken' or 'The City and The City' by Miéville? Urban fantasy but with his unimitable weird flair.

    I started with the 2 and I'm currently wearing the 4. Definitely upgrading to the 6 if it's got the rotating bezel.

    Two games I've been loving lately and can be played at whatever pace you're comfortable with:

    Strange Horticulture is mainly mouse-based but has you labelling your plants once you identify them so a keyboard is required. There are no time limits and even has a shop cat to pet!

    Case of the Golden Idol is a mouse-based mystery game and is definitely filling the gap that Obra Dinn (another poster has already recommended that one) left in my life.

    Murph allowing the 'rule of cool' when it comes to combat makes for excellent listening as well.

    I'd definitely recommend 'A Little to the Left'. A cosy game where you tidy up various things around a house. There are also daily challenges and some DLC dropping at the end of the month.
