Frohike Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Moab Is My Washpot by Stephen Fry - 4/10 I was looking forward to reading this, but now that Ive finished it, I found it quite disappointing. I found that he tends to ramble on, mostly off point. Infact the writer seems to lose his way again and again. Would not recommend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tallanddopey Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 im currentley reading a song of ice and fire by George R R Martin, great set of books with more plot twists than anything i have read or watched before. im just about finishing the 4th book in time for the release of the 5th, and i cant put the books down at the moment mainly because i cant predict at all what will happen next.

taxman Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Got two on the go at the moment, both departures from my usual fare. Gripping Yarns by Bill Oddie which is a collection of birdwatching articles he's previously written for a magazine and The Hare with Amber Eyes which is a biography and personal family history tracing the journey of some Japanese ceramics through the generations.

Guest Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 After galloping through Dennis Lehane's Mystic River (disturbing and depressing, with a solution to the central mystery flagged early in the novel, and a bleakly inevitable conclusion), Gone, Baby, Gone (cunningly twisty turny, but marred by a daft few final pages) and Moonlight Mile (an extremely disappointing belated sequel to Gone, Baby, Gone, replete with shockingly irritating smug domestic bliss - almost unrecognisable as a Lehane), I'm now reading The Art of Fiction by David Lodge, plus a dark old RD Wingfield Frost novel.

gaynorally67 Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Really good reads - The Book Thief by Marcus Cuzak. All the Brodie novels by Kate Atkinson and Rebus novels by Ian Rankin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainbow2411 Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 I am in my detective novel phase, having read James Patterson's "Cross Fire" I realise that even the special offer price of £3 was far to much to pay, so I have started reading "City of Bones" with the lovely Harry Bosch, I am hoping that Michael Connelly won't let me down.

Guest Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Just started on The Psychopath Test by Jon Ronson, and I'm about a third of the way through Time Bomb, an 80s page-turner by Jonathan Kellerman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
