:lol: :lol:About halfway through Nelson Mandela's 'Long Walk To Freedom.'
Upsetting, inspiring, informative, and beautifully written - his personality and sense of humour comes through with every sentence, and although he's writing about despicable times and his own incredible fight, he does it in such a quiet, humble way that you find yourself automatically coming round to his inclusive, forgiving view of the situation in SA. Amazing man, amazing book.

"Life in the United Kingdom: A Journey to Citizenship" by someone who doesn't seem to want to admit to writing it.
Quote by Sassy-Seren
Andy, have you read Angels & Demons yet? It's the book before Da Vinci Code and I have to admit, it's a much better story
I quite agree :thumbup:
Ok I've read loads since January 1
3x Anne Rice Novels
4x Dan Brown Novels
2 x Terry Pratchett
Waiting for a shedload of Philosophy Books to come soon as I so need to get out of reading crap and read something that means something

I'm reading Fruit Of The Lemon by Andrea Levy, the second novel of hers I have read after reading Small Island. Both are brilliant novels, acutely observed, funny and moving.

I'll be very pleased not to look at a book again for a while. Just finished writing my dissertation, lots of psychoanalytical clap trap from Freud, foucault and scruton. I can feel my brain draining out of my ears.
before that - wee free men - pratchett.

Quote by DeeCee

steven hawking.... the universe in a nutshell
:silly:
I'm also weird and read loads at the same time (well not all at once, but I have 3 on the go just now!)
I'm in the middle of Angels and Demons... wish I'd realised it came first before the DVC, but I love Dan Browns books.
I'm also back to reading my fave book ' Wild Swans' by Jung Chang which I've read about 5 times already (memory like a seive so its like I'm reading a new book every time- very cheap lol)
Oh wait, make it four books, I'm also reading No Bones by Anna Burns , and I started Dark Star Safari but have just realised I forgot all about it!
Oh, it also takes me all week to read the Sunday papers- does that count?!
Den was reading some Ian Rankin book, then I realised he bought Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell which I already had, but haven't read yet...spoooky....
I should mention tht since finding the forums, I read about a page of my book a night rather than a book a night lol.....
Addiction.....need medication...........
the new bottoming book.... dossie easton and janet W hardy
the new topping book....as above. these are great books for ideas... :twisted: :twisted:
needle point Jenny roberts... read it before and I loved it so am reading it again..
ummmm Jodi Picoult....can't remember that is my bedside reading. (love her books)
am also re-reading "we need to talk about Kevin" lionel Shriver. marvellous marvellous book ...so well written and , as a parent, I particularly like the questions it throws up about the nature v nuture argument.
in edit.... I also read a lot of books at the same time....as well as the above I have a couple of work related books that I am reading... emotional intelligence, ummm and a couple more that I can't remember.

In an effort to improve my reading I decided to finish off the book I started seven years ago: Reasons & Persons by Derek Parfitt. I also carry a copy of The Problems Of Philosophy by Bertrand Russell around with me.
Now ask me if I'm reading them...
In fairness, the latter is very readable and I'm enjoying it. I got it second-hand from a charity shop for 20p and it's got teeth-marks on it, always a good sign for a philosophy book. The former is also readable and deals with things I'm interested in (if you're replicated and your original body destroyed, is that as good as surviving?) but I realised I wasn't taking it in so it's going back to the library.
> run to the hills the official autobiography of one of the best bands in the world iron maiden...
Ray Davies once wrote an "unofficial autobiography".

I agree, Jodi Picoult tells a good story but I couldn't get into Salem Falls
Oh I enjoyed that one. Still not sure if he did it or not right up to the end.
I've got Jean Cocteau's Diary of an Opium Eater on the go too for those nights where I can't sleep :shock: works a treat :giggle:
