Whhat books are you ashamed to admit you've read?

[Kumquat]

I have read quite a few Mills and Boon books - a family member used to work for them. The quality of the writing was shocking although there were some where I managed a semi…..
They do it so much better in continental Europe….

I recently read 'The Wild Boys' by William S. Burroughs, to find it did for gay sex what 'Junky' did for opiate addiction. Both a fair read tbf...

Anyone else read Peter James books just finished his latest one wasn't bad

 

[The Sock of Poskett]

Most of the Harry Potter series

Ahem, ALL of the Harry Potter series, I must confess. And the collected works of Dan Brown. I am SUCH a popularist.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

I recently read "Human Race get off your knees, The Lion sleeps no more" by David Icke. Either he is completely mad, or the rest of us are.

Which do you think it is?

Gullhanger. Twice. And, no, it wasn't any better at second time of reading, thank you for asking

Health and Efficency...A pervs guide to your neighbours Knickers...

Very funny

Hard Times by Charles Dickens.
Dull, grey, depressing shite - and I had it for my Eng Lit. in the exam year.

Oh very dear, I could have strangled Dickens for it, the old fat bastard

I did read an Archer once, very predictable and very average, other than that, most of my reads I find rewarding.

I've read a few of his mate, Dead Simple and Dead Like You I think were the ones and I thought they were pretty good.

Currently reading Against All Enemies by Tom Clancy which I picked up in the airport before going to Portugal which I got really into whilst out there, but I have a horrible tendency to start books and never finish them.

Brian Clough's autobiography and Peter Ward - once he went to USA I fell fast asleep!

 

[JCL]

the perfect cure for insomnia - "Really Wild Tea Cosies"
Personally, I think the book's cover photo looks like Baldric's codpiece gone wrong!..

Was this in the remaindered pile?

Brian Clough's autobiography and Peter Ward - once he went to USA I fell fast asleep!

I read the biography of Clough, I thought his comments about trying to manage Justin Fashanu quite revealing. Are they trying to make a martyr-saint of basically a bit of a prat?

 

[Publius Ovidius]

Sammy the Sambo shoots lots of Fuzzy Wuzzies by Ima racist

marvellous book

 

[somerset]

I will turn that around,... I am NOT ashamed to own and have read a copy of The Satanic Verses............
