I'm currently reading 'After You' by Jojo Moyes.

It's the sequel to 'Me before you'

Re: What book are you reading now?

I am reading the hunter boys, a story of former hawker hunter pilots and their exploits, one pilot who, disgusted that there would be no official celebration to mark the 50th anniversary of the formation of the raf , flew his hunter under tower bridge, and buzzed the houses of Parliament, he was court martialed and dishonorably discharged from the air force

Re: What book are you reading now?

I will be glad to see the back of this book ...

I'm reading 'Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025? '
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Suicide-Sup.../dp/0312579977

If you were not a racist to begin with you might well be after.

Really heavy going. Informative for sure but you have to have your wits about you so you don't take the stuff on-board and let it cloud your mind with negativity towards your fellow man.

It is quite horrible. Probably right in it's assumptions but the assumptions are downright depressing. More or less stating that multiculturalism has never been a good thing and people of a certain race stick together regardless. Also makes the very valid point that the US (and all Western countries) should never have taken it on board - meaning mass immigration.

Still it is but another book. I don't agree wholeheartedly with his ideas as he also rips into religion in a massive way.

I will come to a conclusion when I have finished the whole thing. An opposing idea is forming in my mind which should come to a conclusion by the time I close the cover.

Warning! It is not light reading material.

Oh for god sake MJK; it is written by PAT BUCHANAN surely the name means something to you?

He's the godfather of the Tea Party movement, he is the right wing, catholic, segregationist darling of the extreme right. What do you expect his book would be like? Anything different would be like expecting UJ to write complementary words about Maggie Thatcher's favourite pumpkin scone recipe. It's an opinion piece for the new right.

Follow it up with Mein Kampf and you would have the set
