I'm really enjoying this Jason Plato book, funniest thing I've read since a certain ex rozzers book.
What are you reading at the moment?

I finished my afternoon read: Guy Martin's latest book Dead men don't tell tales the other day. It's a good read and very similar style to his previous stuff.
So in the afternoon's I have started reading The Triumph of the Sun by Wilbur Smith...which I picked up on a campsite when we were in Spain.
I am 90% through the Frank Herbert Chapterhouse Dune on the kindle for my night-time read. It's been hard going in places but tbf has come good at the back end as all the threads are pulled together.

We used to like the old readers digest condensed books in the 70s

I have some hard cover Readers digest at home, bought a job lot from a charity shop some years ago . I think there are a few I still haven't read.
At the moment I'm skipping many pages of a book because it's so drawn out, it's called I Spy I saw her die. The beginning was OK but now I skip half a chapter and can still pick up the story because it's just a load of nothing new to fill pages. Free on the kindle of course.
I've finished Ian Rankin's Exit Music - very good. A German woman gave it to me on my travels. I can't imagine me picking the book up in French as an improvement exercise. I'm not bad at picking up the gist of information boards etc but I think I'd find an entire book exhausting.

Still on Plato, nearly finished, one of the funniest autobiographies I've read so far, I sort of slow down when I get near to the end of a good book, I like to enjoy them over a few weeks anyway, what's the rush.

I finished reading The Triumph of the Sun by Wilbur Smith the other day. What a cracking read it was too and would make a superb film (in the mould of a Lawrence of Arabia-type epic).
The latest afternoon book is Down Under by Bill Bryson. I read it years ago when it came out and he always raises a smile for me.

Finished Plato last week, Highly recommended for a good laugh, started Jack Dees offering and it's not that funny considering, might bench that.

Nah, he attempts to be funny but fails badly, it's short silly chapter are quite tedious, so I have started a biography on Oliver Reed, seems ok so far, it might be interesting to see behind the man who loved to shock, I bet he was quite tame away from the public eye.

Oliver Reed was a bit boring to read so I ditched it and now onto Richard Harris, I'm not doing very well with my choices this year so far.

Ditched a few biographies this last couple of weeks, started John Barrowman last week, a very interesting chap.
