What book are you reading? & Book Recommendations

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.

  • I love books. Problem is, I'm a really slow reader and am often too mentally tired to read, so I have a mountain of unread books. 

    My next read will probably be one of the many Discworld novels I've collected. I recently finished Guards! Guards! and probably enjoyed it almost as much a Mort. I've also just finished Shakespeare's The Tempest and enjoyed that too. The average read time for it is apparently 90 minutes, but it took me a lot longer than that, due to having to decipher the Old English.

    My next read will probably be Reaper Man, a James Herbert, or a classic sci-fi novel. 

    If anybody is interested in science fantasy comedy, I've just published a novel of my own about two neurodivergent sisters who have to save their absurdly broken universe. It's called Ape to Zed, and it's on Amazon. My dad, who's a painter, did the cover art for me. Smiley
