"A street cat named bob - true story about a homeless guy who 'adopts' a stray ginger tom in london.
I have that, and cried like a bloody daft nellie. "
try 'penguins stopped play' too, it's about a group of blokes goinground the world playing cricket in strange places. before you say you don't like cricket, it's more about their travels and stories than the actual games - you will cry at that too |

Sybil, also known as "The two nations", written by Benjamin Disraeli, former Prime Minister of Great Britain. He was greatly concerned with the poverty of the working classes, and this novel, with its in-depth exploration of those conditions, expressed and circulated his ideas |

The man who broke into Aushwitz.
It was about a british POW who befriended a jew in Aushwitz, he traded places with him twice. Good Read.
I am Ozzy, it goes through the life of Ozzy Osbourne. You may not like the bloke but the book is very funny at times. |

The Book of Daniel. E. L. Doctorow.
The childhood of an American immigrant seen through retrospective eyes.
Cleverly done. A fictional piece based around factual events.
McCarthyist witch hunts etc.

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
Wonder by R.J. Palacio. It's a children's book that I bought for one of the kids but we've all read it now. It's fiction about getting through life, whoever you are and whatever you are going through. Very uplifting.

There is a new Bob book out now.
I am lucky enough to have met Bob as we used to get on the same bus every morning to go to work.

Depends on the kind of stuff you like. Birthday Girls by Annabell Giles. It's about how people's live's intertwine. Has a fantastic ending but it's a bit fluffy, great if you like chick lit.
If you like something more gripping Angelology by Danielle Trussoni. I loved it. |

I'm currently reading The Aquariums of Pyongyang, thoroughly depressing story of life in the North Korean gulags.
I'm totally immersed but if you like happy endings I suspect you're unlikely to get one. |

If you're looking for something a little on the raunchier side, then I'd suggest taking a look at 'but I know what you want - 25 sex tales for the different' by James Williams.
I've been reading it for a few days now and it's a real eye-opener |
