Sherlock Holmes, the complete series. I used to read the Hound of the Baskervilles on a regular basis when I was a kid. Now that I'm sure I can understand Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's english, I decided to read them all in their original language. I bought the two volumes series for like 10€ and the books are thick as dictionnaries (not very convenient to put in a bag). But they are awesome and very inspiring.  |

FInished The Girl at the Lion d'Or last week which i loved. Faulks is one of my favourite authors. Now i'm reading The Catcher in the Rye and After Dark by Murakami. It's my first venture into Murakami land and i find it fascinating so far. Really original. |

Just finished The Killer of Little Shepherds by Douglas Starr. Fascinating look at real life serial killer Joseph Vacher, who roamed the countrysides of France at the end of the nineteenth century, when forensic sciences were first being implemented to solve crimes. Really cool stuff.
Just started Carter Beats the Devil, by Glen David Gold, and I'm completely hooked already. Love the author's style. Plus, it's about my favorite era - late 1800's into early 1900's, and the main character is a magician (who I could already imagine Cillian playing if this were ever made into a movie).

Andre Agassi's Open and East of Eden. I started both of them ages ago and i just haven't been reading much lately so i haven't got very far! I go through these stages of not being in the mood to read every now and then.
I better get back into reading mode though, and get on my booklist for college. It's looongggg!

Oooooh Pisces you read such amazing books! Can you turn them into scripts for Cilly?  Razz... Andre the tennis bloke?  He writes books!? Or am I being really fik? I am not reading anything right now (frustration) not sure I want to read something like a science book again, I couldn't finish Brian Greene Elegant Universe because the string theory really turned me off. Extra dimensional aspects can't be theorized by lower 3 dimensional methods. It ...just ...can't. It's bonkers. But I do hope we can justify the idea of multi dimensional stuff for real one day because it's a great way to push forward with science! It all starts with theories, even the bonkers ones!  Should I stick to fiction?  |

Thing Of Beauty by Stephen Fried www.stephenfried.com/gia/giabook.htmlIt's about the first supermodel Gia Carangi bless her soul she was 26 when she passed away, she is a legend! Great book, sad, funny, intriguing, hard but well written.  |

Started reading the new Stephen King book Doctor Sleep (it's a sequel to The Shining, one of my all time fav King novels!). So far it's been really good. |
