Very deep, how long can you stay awake at night reading that

I have got ' Then we came to the end' by Joshua Ferris for when I go on holiday next week. Some kind of office life comedy effort, anyone known if it's any good?

You'd be amazed

War in the City Volume 1 by David Rowland. Soon to be followed by volume 2.

I have always been fascinated by WW2, but realised I knew nothing about what happened in Brighton. These 2 books document what happened in Brighton and Hove during WW2. He has also written a book called The Brighton Blitz which I think I may well try and get hold of too.

Bit of "Flashman" for me.

And Bruce Forsyth's autobiography.

 

[Gully]

Shantaram - Gregory David Roberts

Not a short book at 933 pages, I am just over a third of the way through, fortunately it is one of those books that are hard to put down...which it needs to be.

 

[JJ McClure]

The Increment by Chris Ryan. It's quite good but it's no Clive Cussler.

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Macroeconomics - Olivier Blanchard
Microeconomics - Jeffrey Perloff

Well, i am studying economics!

Mmmmmmmm..........price elasticity.

 

[Trufflehound]

A Tale of Two Cities, rectifying the shameful oversight that I have got this far through life without ever having read any Dickens.

It's rather good.

 

[spacey]

Sir Jackie Stewart - Winning is Not Enough

Someone leant me the book, thought I might like it, about three chapters in, so far so good.

Was reading a John Grisham book - Innocent Man, but could not get into it, which is unlike Grisham books for me.
