"Lee child working my way through the jack reacher ones "
Great books, such a shame they chose Tom cruise to play him in the movie. Very poor choice in my opinion  |

It’s good you didn’t like ‘Mr Botty drips in Barnsley’ by Emerson Wiles. |

I'm reading Love Life by Ray Kluun. I'm really enjoying it despite it being almost unbearably sad.
On holiday recently I read Hotel World by Ali Smith (I think). It was boring, the idea was great but she took twice as long to say it as needs be. |

I just finished reading Cell by Steven King, it was good.
My favourite authors are James Patterson, Peter James and M J Ardlidge.
But I,m having a complete change atm and reading Alan Titchmarch The last lightkeeper.
For quick reading I collect the adult lady bird books, the one "How it works the husband" is hilarious XXX |

"I've got a few to get through, but I'm struggling to finish "it"
May I suggest ‘The Tommyknockers’? Less intense in some ways. But slow to start but then exponential. "
I've committed now, I'm too far in |

I like Martina Cole and Mandasue Heller. Such easy books to read
Like Steven Leather and Harlan Coben also and John Grisham...ones like that
Tried to read Game of thrones books and only lasted 100 pages then gave up. If it has too many characters I find it too hard to follow
Best book I ever read was The Nemesis file by Paul Bruce. Only book I've read twice
My first adult book was Flowers in the Attic by Virgina Andrews when I was 9 or 10. Was hooked on books ever since x |

"Jack Kerouac ,"On the Road"
Robert m pirsig "Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance""
I loved On the Road; it’s a great read once you get used to JK’s writing style.
Zen etc. On the other hand I failed to find profound, apart from the short section about what you can tell about someone from the state of their workshop and toolbox. |
