I’m sure I literally just answered this on another thread!? Did it get pulled? 
Anyway, last book completed was the Secret Footballer : What goes on tour ...
Not high brow or intellectual - but perfect for by the pool on holibobs!  |

The last book I read was Sepulchre by Kate Mosse. I'm not sure what to read next so looking forward to suggestions from this thread, I read Ready Player One after seeing it on the last thread and loved it. |

Elizabeth's Women by Tracy Borman
It's a non fiction account of the women in Elizabeth the firsts life. Fascinating stuff.
For fiction I've just finished The Clothes They Stood Up In by Alan Bennett, I love him. |

Oh I love fiction but I read non- too - I read a lot of social history, and right now I'm reading Gabriel Garcia Marquez's memoir 'Living To Tell The Tale'. |

Just finished the latest Aaronovitch. A return to form, a great novel. I really, really enjoyed it. Next, the naked ape. It's been years since in read any good deep clinical psychology, and I'm quite looking forward to reading the book that started about Revolution in psychology.
Ive read alot of the classics. Freud, Yung, and then the 70's new wave, like Laing, infact RD Laing is probably the most influential thing I've ever read.
So, the naked as per it's sort of filling a gap.
It's that or the new Jack Reacher. |

Re-reading Carpe Jugulum by Terry Pratchett when I'm on the move, whilst reading Siberia: Behind the Grey Area by Paddy Linehan whilst at home. Also reading the first Walking Dead omnibus when I have time if that counts... |

Audible in the car - Sarah Millican, How to be Champion. Surprisingly quite sad in places, good book.
At home - Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain. Quite fascinating, and already improved my drawing.
Also at home - Tom Sharpe's Wilt, just because I've not read it in 20 years or so. Still funny. |

I was in a pub drinking some Mexican spirits when this lady walked over and laughed at me for drinking them and said they were the drink of idiots.
She was a tequila mocking bird..... |
