I've read several books by Lisa Jewell. Then She Was Gone, Watching You, and others. She never disappoints.

Re: What book are you reading now?

I've just finished Clancy/Gearney's "Full Force & Effect". I know it's an old one but I felt I needed some lightweight holiday-type boys' own adventure reading.

A Brush with Death by Quintin Jardine


Bob Skinner, ex cop, now MI5, book 29 in the series ...

Dalton Trumbo's "Johnny Got His Gun".

Not a particularly uplifting read to say the very least!
I saw the film on the box years ago, both compelling and disturbing.

Read a few of his. A good read.
The Oz Blackstone ones are a bit different.

Currently reading James Herbert, The Secret of Crickley Hall.
So far rather formulaic, not that interesting but I will persevere.

" English Gothic " by Johnathon Rigby.

A fascinating volume about the history of Brit horror films.
It's a book that's a pleasure to "dip into".

Re: What book are you reading now?

Currently I'm working through two:

Battlefield Earth: A Saga of the Year 3000 by L.Ron Hubbard in written form and Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand via audiobook. Both of them are re-reads...this has to be at least the 4th time for BE and only the second for AS.

If you enjoy Philosophy, Politics and Dystopian Sci-Fi, you should give Atlas Shrugged a go.

If you just like good ol' Science Fiction, you should definitely give Battlefield Earth a go...and if you've seen the movie, don't be influenced by it...it has nothing to do with the book.

Jilly Cooper's The Common Years, probably for the 30th time. I love that book.
