Emperor of all the Maladies, a biography of cancer by Siddhartba Mukherjee; compelling and fascinating history book, winner of Pulitzer non-fiction prize 2011, and the Guardian first book award 2011.

A stone of Swords 1: steel and snow, George RR Martin,

so glad one of my workmates got me into these books, would have never picked them up myself, now I can't put them down.

Unearthed a copy of Catch 22 I acquired several years ago but never got round to reading. Enjoying it so far at any rate.

I started reading This Boy's Life by Tobias Wolff a few hours ago and I haven't been able to put it down.

Started James Patterson (Alex Cross) series last week. On the second book now "Kiss the Girls"
Not bad at all, has anyone got through the entire 18 books in this series?

We Need To Talk About Kevin - Lionel Shriver. It's hitting a bit close to the bone in parts, I have to say...

Loved that book. Tough to read alright, but I think all potential parents should give it a read!

I hate smart arses too. Why can't they just keep their opinions to themselves. As if anyone cares what they think :rolleyes:

Back to the topic in hand: This week I am mostly reading A Town Like Alice by Nevil Shute and am enjoying it immensely. A great start to the New Year.

HANGOVER SQUARE by Patrick Hamilton

x_Ellie_x · 05-01-2012 11:30PM

I just started The Bridges of Madison County by R.J. Waller tonight.

Flashgordon197 · 05-01-2012 11:35PM

Smiley's People by John Le Carre. If you liked the film Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy then you will love this. He is a brilliant writer-the doyen of the British Spy thriller. We could all be Smiley and that is what makes him so appealing

timewilltell · 06-01-2012 12:55AM

This week I am mostly reading How I Live Now by Meg Rosoff. I'd say this is my 5th time to read it, doing it as part of my thesis this time!

cynder · 06-01-2012 04:02PM

since the 1st of jan ive read, 'starcrossed' 'wither' 'city of bones' city of ashes' city of glass' and ' city of fallen angels' quite enjoyed all of them only they have left me with an almighty migraine.
