Ive just bought "A Thousand Splendid Suns" by Khaled Hosseini. Apparently his books are pretty good. Also wrote the Kite Runner. Its supposed to be about the volatile events of Afghanistan’s last thirty years—from the reign of the Taliban to the post-Taliban rebuilding and looks pretty good.
Im in the middle of Russel Brands "My Booky Wook" at the moment which is pretty hilarious.

I'm halfway through Clarkson's "Don't Stop Me Now" which is very amusing.
I fancy something a bit more complex for my next read though, I missed out on His Dark Materials trilogy by Philip Pullman so I'm starting on Northern Lights for my next read, and have The Subtle Knife lined up.

About the addict who tried to get the hostel workers convicted of dealing freed? They dramatised that not long ago , bbc2 I think, was quite well done I thought. My girlfriend wanted to watch it because she works with ex-addicts. The last book I read was The Damned United, which was a cracking little read really. Not I'm flitting through The Book of General Ignorance, while trying to decide between a John Pilger book or something by Murakami. |

I read loads of books when I was away...
Read a few Robert Ludlums but I didn't read any of the Bourne ones, I managed The bancroft Strategy, Road to Omaha, The Sigma Protocol and The Altman Code.
Also read Imperium by Robert Harris, I like his stuff and I managed to squeeze in an old Tom Clancy classic, Without Remorse and The Day of the Jackal!
I was away for 3.5 weeks!!

finally got round to reading angels and demons a couple of weeks back. i personally prefer the da vinci code. perhaps if i had read a&d first it would be the other way round, as both follow very similar patterns.
don't read anywhere near as much as i used to, as whenever i open a book i realise it should be some uni related literature instead of light relief

Is anyone a fan of Dean Koontz? I think I need to read one of his I haven't read before. Any suggestions?
