[Misc] What Book are you Currently Reading?

[Weststander]

‘One Kick’ by Chelsea Cain. Well written, not a wasted or superfluous word.

Anyone doing the just released Gary Numan autobiography? Very well reviewed from what I’ve seen.

Numan was interviewed on Radio Sussex the other day, the autobio sounds great. A new perspective on his entire life.

Currently on page 555 of 755 of Jon Lee Anderson’s “Che Guevara a revolutionary life”. It’s an easy read luckily for me - almost in the style of a thriller. I knew little about him before I picked up the book, other than the T shirt of course. Turns out he was a bloody Argie, just like Maradona.

I read and enjoyed 'A Season with Verona'

Jury out for now as only read 1st chapter, however, if as good as a Season in Verona should be fine this book focuses on his kids and living in Italy

Walk The Wire- David Baldacci

Brilliant first two-thirds, the final third loses it’s way completely imho.

Brilliant first two-thirds, the final third loses it’s way completely imho.

Interesting, I’ve still to read a good 300 pages of the good stuff then. So many new characters are introduced I feel like I need to remember them as no doubt some will become pivotal..

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

The Silent Patient - Alex Micahelides

Gotta say im hooked early on

My first fiction book in a long time - easy, undemanding read - I really enjoyed it

 

[FamilyGuy]

"I am Brian Wilson" - the autobiography of one of my musical heroes. Its a hard read, it rambles a bit, and he comes across as very honest, which all adds to the authenticity of a genius who has had a hard life - albeit in part self-inflicted.

I have tickets for his Covid-delayed concert at The Dome in July, here's hoping!
