In the canteen at work, colleagues bring in books they've finished reading.
Someone has left a series of Tom Sharpe's comic stories, such as "Wilt"; I'm re-reading some of them - all classic laugh out loud stuff! |

"I am re-reading all the Alex Cross books by James Patterson, should keep me out of trouble for a while
N"
I read a few of them in paper form and have them on my kindle but I'm into elves and dragons - just started dragon charmers last night (onto chapter 10!) as finished all of Terry brooks Shannara stories which I love (despite similarities to LOTR which i also like) |

Now that Malorie Blackman is the Children's Laureate try some of hers. Writing for young people but very interesting.
I'm reading a funny book from 1938, Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day. Cocaine and sex in the first few pages. |

I remember once not being able to put a book down - probably because I'd spilled super glue on the cover but still, it solved my chronic masturbation problem (for a few days). |

"I am reading two or three,the beauty of kindle, I switch between the three with little effort. "
I've read one book on my tablet. I enjoyed the book I was reading but I didn't enjoy the tablet as a book experience. |

I'm currently reading World War Z after mentioning the film on the forum and hearing that it was based on a book. Very good read, looking forward to seeing the film (Admin, can we have a Zombie smiley please?) |

Do you have to pay to download books?"
Some you do and some you don't - just have to search - my trilogy of dragon charmers was 4.99 but the intro short story was free. Anything copyright free is usually free - got most of Charles Dickens and Shakespeare free as writer died over 50 years ago. Just search the net for free e-books |

We loved all these books the only down side was I read them while pregnant so I cried from start to finish |

I like the Christine Feehan Dark series, there is a romance to them and some rather raunchy parts, but I quite like the chase and the fights, you really imagine what the bad vamps are like...very very good books in my opinion |
