I am reading a James Patterson book one of the Alex Cross series Cross Justice
I have both of those to read yet, but I believe the Kabul Beauty School is the only one that is non-fiction and an actual account of her own life, quite some life too !
I think you would enjoy it Muddy.
Am re-reading the brilliantly funy Squire Haggard’s Journal by Michael Green. It’s set in the late 18th century and is a parody of diaries published at the time such as those by James Boswell with the influence of Samuel Pepys thrown in.
After reading Hilary Mantells Wolf Hall and Bring up the Bodies, I have become hooked on the life of Thomas Cromwell
I am now reading about the real guy from Tracy Bormans book, The untold story of Henry VIII’s most faithful servant.
A fascinating look into the life of a real bastard, if you were catholic during the reign of Henry. 
Oh come on Rehab, we all know you are reading 50 Shades for the 5th time. 
Only this bit Mups, ‘Hurt me!’ she begged, leaning over the dining table expectantly. ‘OK,’ I replied, ‘Your turkey’s too dry and your sprouts are overcooked.’
I,m reading,. On the Road ! by… Orson Cart !
In a secondhand shop on Thursday and I found a brand new copy of Still Alice, as I dont think the film would be suitable viewing ith OH around this seemed a good alterative.
30 pages in and I can see the doubt creeping in to Alice’s mind…
I’ve just finished reading “The Book Thief” by Markus Zusak. The book is about a 9 year old girl living with a foster family in 1939 Nazi Germany. The “important information blurb” reads…“it’s a story about a girl, an accordionist, some fanatical Germans, a Jewish fist fighter and quite a lot of thievery. The novel is narrated by Death.”
It took me 3 chapters to get “into” the book, but then I couldn’t put it down.
I’ve just started reading “What’s tha up to?”. Memories of a Yorkshire bobby, by Martyn Johnson. Martyn was a policeman in Sheffield, his first beat was Attercliffe, he was also a regular contributor on Tony Capstick’s radio programme. It’s proving to be an interesting and humorous book.
I have just started the true account of Robin Hood, which tries to separate the fact from the fiction, and was surprised to learn that the account of the end of his life was in fact true.
Apparently he was taken to a dwelling on the edge of Sherwood Forest and lying on a bed near a window, he DID ask for his Longbow, which was bought to him.
They propped him up on the bed and he told Little John,. " Wherever this last arrow lands,. Bury me There " !. Using his last remaining strength, he propped himself up,.drew back the Bow, pointed the arrow upwards and fired it, then collapsed back onto his bed and died there shortly afterwards.
Next morning true to his wishes they found where the arrow had landed and buried him…In the Ceiling ! Aaaw !
I am reading “New Money” by Lorraine Rosenthal.
About a young woman who just inherited a few million from a Father she never knew.
He also has two legitimate kids that were left nothing but his business to run. Needless to say they are not happy about having to actually work for a living and include this new half sister who does want to work in the business.
I have just started reading Under a Cornish Sky by Liz Fenwick.
Just started wildfire chronicles by k r griffiths, I’m hoping it’s better than starting the slowpoalypse by James litherland that I’ve just abandoned as the most boring book mankind has produced ! It was named well I thought but I only got about third of the way through before I was thinking of slitting my wrists with boredom !
Just finished Persons Unknown (Manon Bradshaw thriller no.2) by Susie Steiner, and what a great writer she is!
Her previous novel about the same police detective (Manon Bradshaw Thriller no.1) was Missing, Presumed.
Excellent thrillers and laugh out loud funny in places, she has such an entertaining style.
I do hope there will be a third!
I’m hopeless with books.
I hardly ever start one and read it through to the end.
Half way through, I start another one, then another, and so on.
Time I decide to finish the first one, I have forgotten half the story and have to start it again! 
I got four books ftom the library last week, “The Petticoat Men” by Barbara Ewing, excellent, based on true court case of two transvestites in Victorian times and the impact of their “crime” of cross dressing on them and those around them including people losing jobs etc. even suicide. The wealthy covering up their involvement and the less wealthy losing everything.
“The Last of Us” by Rob Ewing also very good, about five children surviving a plague that killed everyone, fending for themselves on an island in Scotland.
“The Fourteenth Letter” by Claire Evans, I’ve just started, it’s very good so far, set in 1881 “a murdered bride, a cryptic message and a dangerous message”!
The last one is, " Bodies of Light" by Sarah Moss…
I’ll let you know when I get to it…
I’m with mups.
I seldom finish a book. I get bored.
there are so few that are interesting enough to finish right to the end.
I do love most of John Grisham’s books.
Finished this book today, its sad but powerful and gives food for thought… really well worth reading.
I am reading “The Kept Woman” by Karin Slaughter. A thriller set in Atlanta about a murdered former policeman found dead in a warehouse and a missing woman. I am enjoying it and am halfway through it. I usually get through two books per week, but always have spares on my Kindle app.
