I have both of those to read yet, but I believe the Kabul Beauty School is the only one that is non-fiction and an actual account of her own life, quite some life too !

Am re-reading the brilliantly funy Squire Haggard's Journal by Michael Green. It's set in the late 18th century and is a parody of diaries published at the time such as those by James Boswell with the influence of Samuel Pepys thrown in.

Re: What book are you reading now?

After reading Hilary Mantells Wolf Hall and Bring up the Bodies, I have become hooked on the life of Thomas Cromwell
I am now reading about the real guy from Tracy Bormans book, The untold story of Henry VIII's most faithful servant.
A fascinating look into the life of a real bastard, if you were catholic during the reign of Henry.

Only this bit Mups, 'Hurt me!' she begged, leaning over the dining table expectantly. 'OK,' I replied, 'Your turkey's too dry and your sprouts are overcooked.'

Re: What book are you reading now?

In a secondhand shop on Thursday and I found a brand new copy of Still Alice, as I dont think the film would be suitable viewing ith OH around this seemed a good alterative.

30 pages in and I can see the doubt creeping in to Alice's mind...

Re: What book are you reading now?

I've just finished reading "The Book Thief" by Markus Zusak. The book is about a 9 year old girl living with a foster family in 1939 Nazi Germany. The "important information blurb" reads........."it's a story about a girl, an accordionist, some fanatical Germans, a Jewish fist fighter and quite a lot of thievery. The novel is narrated by Death."

It took me 3 chapters to get "into" the book, but then I couldn't put it down.


I've just started reading "What's tha up to?". Memories of a Yorkshire bobby, by Martyn Johnson. Martyn was a policeman in Sheffield, his first beat was Attercliffe, he was also a regular contributor on Tony Capstick's radio programme. It's proving to be an interesting and humorous book.
