    I've just started Mutiny on the Bounty by John Boyne-the guy who wrote The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas. Excellent so far.

    Les Grands Meaulnes by Alain-Fournier.

    Really excellent, great pity this author didn't get to write more, he could've been one of the greats!

    I've mixed views about this book ... although it is about a Mafia Boss on trial but it really is not as believable as Pattersons' other books; just not as gripping and 'must-read' as his other books
