What Are You Reading At The Moment?

[naomi24]

I've just started Andrew Marr's 'A History of the World'.

[ImLostAgain]

Shamini Flints 'The Singapore school of Villany'.
Just a bit of light reading really. A Singapore Sikh who isn't like other detectives. He's fat and out of condition, but of course, very clever.

Vagus, I’ve just got the same one from the library. I enjoyed The Island so looking forward to reading this one.

[Lie-in King]

Stephen King's "The Outsider"

[Vagus]

Milo, mine was a 99p daily kindle deal.
I too really enjoyed The Island, I learnt so much about leprosy too, fascinating.

[DTCwordfan]

Danny Danziger and John Gillinhgam's 1215, a re-read, fascinating that this is. https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/1215_The_Year_of_Magna_Carta/gKIQJMkawT4C?hl=en&gbpv=1&printsec=frontcover

[Khandro]

Anyone who has personal memories of their parents or grandparents, or is simply interested in what happened to the wives & servicemen during and returning from WWII should read this book 'Stranger in the House' - I'm re-reading it (in fact I wish everyone could read it;
Amazon.co.uk User Recommendation

A Song For The Dark Times - Ian Rankin

[Peter Pedant]

Because my mama was educated in a convent - in India actually, and never wrote a book

I am on Frost in May - the first virago publication

Little Nanda Grey goes to a convent and DOES write about it. Extensively. |Decades of the Rosary. Novenas. Latin Masses
150 pp of Nanda envying Maisie Foo-foo who ALWAYS wins the pink ribbon of Eternal Forgiveness for that week, presented by Mother beatissima maria - always smelling of violets.....Maisie never manages to do a dman thing the holy nuns can deplore
Basically Nanda is too adventurous by far - and one time wipes the History prep question off the black board to gasps of dismay from the other more obedient girls.

I may migrate onto the Affair C P Snow - research fraud in 1950

[Peter Pedant]

A book about anti-gravity ,,, I can't put it down
O I am on Casino Royale - I am in a spin about it!

Quantum Manjit Kumar - very good and clear about C19 quantum theory and where did it go to - - but you have to be interested in - Cantor, Einstein and Max Planck (*)

Oh Mr Plank how did you persuade all the old professors to accept you new revolutionary theories?

Planck - for it is he: - - they died

( actually he said - Physics progresses thro a series of funerals - but my misquote is better)

[drmorgans]

This Charming Man by Marian Keyes. The title is ironic. The story of three women who have been abused by a charismatic politician. Funny and bleak by turns.

[eleanor2]

John Cooper Clarke .. 'I Wanna Be Yours'

[Ken4155]

L-I-K and Sanmac - both good reads.

I've just finished Dark Sacred Night in which Bosch teams up with female detective Rene Ballard. Another good read.
