Re: Bookworms: What are you reading at the moment?
The English by Jeremy Paxman. Another 50p bargain from our local charity shop and an evaluation of what it is to be English. Not bad actually, gets right to the heart of patriotism and what has fuelled it over the centuries.

Re: Bookworms: What are you reading at the moment?
Marshmallows for Breakfast by Dorothy Koomson.......really enjoyed it, but was hard to get into at first.
The 8th Confession by James Patterson......this was another one that I didn't think I was going to take to, but I did and again enjoyed it

"The High Crusade": Poul Anderson. Hilarious stuff ... a must for sci-fi fans who also have an interest in medieaval history.

About halfway into it and an entertaining read although Glenister obviously adores his Gene Hunt character as he barely stops referencing him. Picked this up in The Works for £2, money well spent.

Re: Bookworms: What are you reading at the moment?
Just finished " 1918 The last Act" very good if you like reading about the first world war, its about the stalemate and the terrible slaughter of the last offensives and the Americans entering this terrible war.
