What are you reading?

One of my favourites! I enjoyed the film as well, I thought both the book and film were superbly done.

*bump*

I'm currently reading one of my favourite books - Lorna Doone. I own a few different editions of this book, one is from the 1920s, the oldest book I own. I love this story and never get tired of reading it.

I'm glad to have got Septology by Jon Fosse now and am getting into that 

It is a ghost/crime story without too many spoilers just in case you ever get hold of a copy it's set in what I believe to be the American east coast (either it doesn't actually say or I some how skipped that line) in the then contemporary 1940's and there's a lot of shady goings on surrounding how a small fortune was inherited.

There are a few phrases that are old timey enough to warrant a quick googling to understand but otherwise it's not a difficult read once you get used to the way folks used to talk back then. And yes I am enjoying it. :)
Mine is the edition photographed too so it's like the 50's edition but it was originally published in the 40's.

What is the book about? Are you enjoying it?

Time for a bump on this thread because I have made some good headway with this classic:

His books are wonderful

Elementary linear algebra with applications.

At the moment I'm reading Charlotte Street by Danny Wallace. I wanted something light to read and got it for 20p from a charity shop and it's worked out fine. I ordered Septology by Jon Fosse from a bookshop the other day as I became aware of him winning the Nobel Prize for Literature recently. I was unaware of him until then and am attracted to his Septology series especially as I was 50 not long ago (i.e. confronting existential reality and so on)  

I’m currently reading One of us is lying by Karen M. McManus^_^

Cool, have you read any of the other Markus Zusak books?

Yes I have, I thought it was an excellent movie. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Have you watched the film version of The Book Thief?

The Book Thief by Markus Zusak.

I first heard of this book at school and it’s the book that made me appreciate annotating and analysing literature. It’s so rich and beautifully done and the perspective is just incredibly creative.

I took it from the school library and stayed up until 3 in the morning to finish it.

I would go so far to say that this is one of the best books ever written.

A Class Act by Gervase Phinn                

Me too  

Hi, 

I am reading ' Cathy Glass - The silent cry '.

Have you watched the Rocketman film?

Vietnam by Max Hastings.  Fascinating account of the conflict.

I'm currently physically reading the second Magisterium book, The Copper Gauntlet by Holly Black and Cassandra Clare, and I'm listening to the audiobook of the third Warrior Cats book, Forest of Secrets by Erin Hunter :) I love reading
