Just finished the Rebus novel “Let It Bleed” by Ian Rankin, Tartan Noir is one of my favourite genre’ of books and I’d recommend to anyone who likes a good read!
Anyone got other recommendations? |

"Does razzle escort and reader wives count ?  "
might have already been mentioned on here. But how are porn mags still going? You think the internet would have made them redundant. But in the garage they had loads the other day |

I really enjoyed Dead Men’s Trousers! Wonder if it will be his last. |

This is on my "To read" list."
Was there back in January. Hearing the stories whilst walking on the same path these poor people trod was something that'll always be there. |

I'm reading it too. It is indeed a very worthwhile read. |

Just finished Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Harari, and now onto Yanis Varoufakis' Adults in the Room. Sapiens was the most interesting book I've read in a long time, and I'm well versed in Yanis' writings already so know that book will be amazing too. |

"Has anyone read bernard cornwalls the last kingdom series?
I enjoyed the tv series and usually the books are miles better x"
Read ALL Bernard Cornwall except the Last Kingdom. All solid to excellent if you are not looking for a cerebral reading experience.
And agree on the tv transition. Sharpe on Tv was good (for its day) but the books even better.  |
