I thought we could share about the books we are reading, read and want to read. I’m no bookworm, but enjoy a good read.
A brilliant book I read a little while ago was Memoirs of A Geisha by Arthur Golden. Fascinating insight into these girls lives.
Oh I liked that one.
One that I read in one day (a lovely lazy day in the sunshine with a book and a long drink – heaven!) and loved was The Alchemist bye Paulo Coelho.
These days most of the books I read are books that I sell in the shop, customers seem to expect me to have read them for some reason…
Stephen Fry,s debut novel , Liar .
A book to pick you up , very funny and quite a brilliant first .
At the moment I’m reading The Life Of Mahatma Gandhi by Louis Fischer. An amazing insight into his life. Some of the places mentioned in the book where historical events took place are places I have actually visited.
I’ve just run out of books, luckily i shall have beer and then may be able to sleep without my nightly read, i’ll top up on paperbacks tomorrow.
I love reading, will and do read anything and everything.
Love Jodi Piclout, James Patterson, Jonathan Kellerman, Dick Francis, Stephen King, James Herbert amongst others.
Have not long finished The Time Travellers Wife… interesting read, am going to read The Constant Gardener again next, read it years ago while travelling, thought it was a wonderful book.
James Herberts early stuff was brilliant I think he’s running out of ideas now
“Our Betty”, Liz Smith’s autobiography.Not one of those luvvy celebrity bios but a raw, open, honest account tinged with sadness and hilarity and yes, as expected, she’s slightly eccentric (!)
Currently i’m reading Columbine by Dave Cullen which strips away all the media/police lies surrounding the school shooting and delivers the facts in a most fascinating way. Surely the greatest true crime book ever.
The edge collection when i do get time to read… A half breed mexican causing a rucus with them thar cowboys
