[Solved] What are you reading?

I'm more into Sci-fi & fantasy. I've seen the adverts for lee child, which is crime isn't it? Always looked quite 'dark', borderring on horror. Is it?

A friend of mine has had some really good reviews of his book - Selah: A rebellious hope, which is a fantasy book on kindle (hmmm am I allowed to plug that????)

On the Sci-fi side Peter F Hamilton is my favourite author, but his books are very long and in trilogies - this is not everyone's cup of tea. Early Iain.M.Banks was brilliant - but his more recent books cross over into horror, and I can't read them 🙁

Also I downloaded free copy of war of the worlds ( eldest is doing it at school). With interest in Sherlock Holmes there were a few free versions on kindle - I paid 1.50, for a version that was proof read and formatted! (Sorry shallow...)

I really enjoyed both the bbc Sherlock Holmes and the films.

No Jack Reacher is an ex army guy who gets involved in a number of situations - always gets the girl - and always sorts everyone out.

Very well written and if you like James Patterson or Jack Higgins then you'll like these

I can' believe that he is 6'5" weighs 230lbs and is to be played by Tom Cruise!!! What next Graham Norton to play Don Corleone in a remake of the Godfather?

I'm a bit out of touch with reading, of late. When I do read, I tend to enjoy historical WW2 books such as those by Stephen Ambrose or Max Hastings. A good example is Das Reich, which is a phenominal read and an incredible insight into the French resistance's fight against The Reich.

N.D.

- always gets the girl - and always sorts everyone out.

Ahhh - sounds all right

That is just wierd... lots of good actors out there, I vote for Adam Baldwin (Chuck, Firefly)... Should we start a campaign?

Think it may be too late - the film is released soon

I would have liked to have seen someone like Jason Statham play the role but who knows it may be ok

Not sure I could rely on a book so much but then I have good looks, charm aplenty and a bulging wallet and trousers - you see my book is a fairy story!!!!

currently reading 'Autobiography' by Morrissey. It's a poetic tragi-comic read as you might expect. I am a huge Smiths fan and also his earlier solo work.

Anyone else?

One thing I like about kindle (any kindle reader, as I read on my phone) is that you can read a reasonable amount of a book before deciding to buy - I've just read a couple of books by Tracey Brooks which I would never have dreamed of even looking at in a bookshop, but been very amusing reads.

A monk sold his ferrai -its an inspirational one story that I am reading now.

i have been reading alot of books by con iggulden ghengis khan. i never thought i would get into them. wow what a writer

I'm currently reading Great Bitten: The Outbreak by Warren Fielding. Its a Zombie-Horror set in the UK and is the story about a Journalist and how he survives through it.

I'm not usually a reader of Zombie books, prefer the films but I work with the author (not related to books or writing in any way!) and it was recommended to buy it on more than one occasion so I did and i'm glad I did!

The other books i'm reading are The Enigma, the book about Alan Turing and Ayoade on Ayoade. 8)

Currently Reading casual Vacancy by JK Rowling. It's a fun and exciting book, won't spoil it more, just grab a copt, you will never regret it 😉

I'm not a fan of that kind of books, but since you're saying it's an exciting one, I think I should get a copy of it.

my younger sister has a copy of this book, but never read it yet. I think i caught a glimpse a movie version of it last night but not quite sure about it.

I'm nightmare with books I only read when I'm on holiday, so I started reading guy Martins auto biography, it's a good book lots of humour as you would expect from him, and when your reading it you can't help but do the accent in your head Lol

I'm reading 48 Laws of Power...It's about manipulations and how people manipulate each other in their daily lies. I like th examples in the book but the idea of fooling other people is discouraging.
