Do you read when you go to bed...?

[Bry Nylon]

...and if so, what are you reading at the moment?

 

[Redhead]

I'm reading Bill Bryson A short history of nearly everything.

I'm reading Bill Bryson A short history of nearly everything.

That's a fine book. I was reading it, but kind of got 'lost' half way through when I didn't read it for few nights (the bit about moss). It is still lying there, waiting to be finished.

 

[The Large One]

Read that. As a wordsmith of few, um, words, I preferred Mother Tongue - as it were.

I've just finished reading The Odessa File by Frederick Forsyth, but I can't find it now and the missus wants to read it next. I'm going to have to find something else to read - perhaps I might go trawling the second-hand bookshops for some more Len Deighton.

Superb book.

Last books I read were Catch 22 - Joseph Heller, Starter for Ten - David Nicholas.. I think.

Reading The Historian at the moment.

Nasty.

Much prefer Hamlet, or my personal favourite - A Midsummer Night's dream.

 

[Juan Albion]

Just finished "The Husband" by Dean Koontz. Quite a neat idea.

The Tyrannicide Brief - Geoffrey Robertson

John Cooke

In 1649, no lawyer in the country would accept the brief of prosecuting Charles I, except one — John Cooke, the bravest of barristers, who was hung, drawn and quartered as punishment for sending the King to the scaffold.

 

[Vankleek Hill Seagull]

I do read before I disappear to the land of nod.

I'm currently reading the Brightonomicon by Robert Rankin.

 

[n1 gull]

I've very nearly finished Nick Hornby - A long way down. I've thoroughly enjoyed it, although I know quite a few people who thought it was disappointing.

I would appreciate a recommendation for a new book. I fancy a real page turner and nothing too heavy.

 

[Gwylan]

Nearly always read before going to bed.

Current read: Tom Jones. Fantastic book, wish I'd read it 30 years ago after I'd just seen the film.

 

[Deleted member 2719]

Usually read about football or boxing.

Reading Alan Mullerys autobiography at the moment.

 

[Da Man Clay]

I usually juts play an hour or so of football manager

 

[Icy Gull]

The Colditz Legacy by Guy Walters, not bad at all if you like war and secret service novels.
