What book are you reading?

What books have you read lately?

Do you have any book recommendations?

I love to read but because I read so much I have read a lot of books and struggle to find new ones to pick up. The last book I read was Gareth Brown: The Book of Doors – I found it to be one of those ”I can’t put this down” books and finished the near 500 page book within 3 days.

I normally stick to a routine of going to bed at 10:30pm but because of this book I wasn’t getting to sleep until about 2:00am. Worth it though it was such a great book!

Adding this to my recommendations for other avid readers.

Now I’m reading Nerd Do Well – Simon Peggs autobiography. I’m a big Simon Pegg fan, I love his films and when I saw he’d released a biography, I went out and bought it straight away!

Looking forward to hearing what you have read and checking any recommendations you may have.

  • It's only about once every three or four years that I read something I really love, but when it happens, there's nothing better. The book I've enjoyed most is probably The Secret History by Donna Tartt. Some people say one of the main characters is autistic. The thing that struck me about the book was that it makes you feel like the member of a secret society, an elite group who know what's going on when ordinary people are in the dark. Many of my favourite books have a similar effect. I love spy stories, and Tinker Tailor is probably my all-time fave.
