Finished The Invention of Hugo Chabret by Brian Selznick last night. I started it at around 11 and figured I'd just read a couple chapters before going to bed.
Yeah, that didn't happen.
It's really good. It's about a kid who lives in a train station and is trying to make an automaton work. Along the way, he meets a guy who runs a toy store in the station and his goddaughter (also a kid) and he (very reluctantly) enlists their help.
Well, it's more like they thrust it upon him than he asks for it, but anyway.
I know I said I'd read the Philippa Gregory book but my brain rebelled against more historical fiction. So that and the Alison Weir novel are on hold for the time being.
