Well I have actually written my own book... 13 - Lucky For Some : The History of the 13th ( Lancashire ) Parachute Battalion you can get it on Amazon. It's a book honouring the 13th ( Lancashire ) Parachute Battalion and the men who gave their lives fighting for their country.

Thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish, would highly recommend.

I just read The Hundred-Foot Journey by Richard C. Morais, very good holiday read. x

Relentless by Simon Kernick

Straw Men by Michael Marshall

Very tense. Very well written.

Possibly a bit 'filmy' for some though.

Loved that, although a book about reading the best book in the world is a bit like this song:



Good read though.

Just finished Future Noir: Making of Blade Runner, fascinating, it's a wonder they got anything on the screen at all with all of the shenanigans , far less a masterpiece. Have you read this @Pat's Van ?

L.o.t.R. Anything by Stephen King: Pet Semetary, 11.22.63 (a little bit based on Kennedy assassination), The Dark Tower series of books (8 now in total) and It being personal faves. Occasional Shaun Hutson/James Herbert. Dean Koontz's "Odd Thomas" (good film also). David Eddings stuff. Also dunno why font went big and dunno how to change it. (NOT a book title).

Finally finished 'American Pastoral'. Very good, but I find Roth a bit boring.

Sounds like a good one.

Easy Riders to Raging Bulls, and Down and Dirty Pictures are great behind the scenes looks at certain Hollywood movements down the years.

Have read most of John Grisham,s books...all are boss.
Alex Ferguson auto biog was good,as was Roy Keane,s first one.
Reading Colin Harvey,s auto biog at the mo...which is a bit crappy to be honest.
Next up will be Howard Kendall,s autobiog.
I quite like auto biogas,(as you might have deduced by now) as long as they have no connection past or present,to the redshite..
