Howdy,

As the current cloud cover / rain / fog here seems to be continuing unabated (1 clear night in the last 2 weeks and counting!) I am currently trying to read some books on Astronomy so when there is a good night I will have some clue what to look at / what I am looking at! 

I have currently read:

"Nightwatch: A Practical Guide to Viewing the Universe" - Terence Dickinson

- I found this book very engaging, very accessible and a great overview of a bit of everything and a handy spiral bound format for using some of the included charts. 

 

I'm reading this book now and enjoying it.

Agreed it is very accessible and engaging!
