    I recently finished "Born to Run" by Christopher McDougall. Finally! Now I'm reading "American Way of Eating" by Tracie McMillan. Undercover journalism gets me every time.

    I am usually part way through multiple books as most of what I read isn't actually fiction.

    Last thing I read cover to cover was "Morality" by Christopher Hitchens, the last novel I read (again) was "Norwegian Wood" by Haruki Murakami and the last thing I was reading was, I believe, "The Popes" by John Julius Norwich.

    Let the right one in,by someone Swedish (?) who's name I can't spell out pronounce.
  • Terry Pratchett's "The Colour of money"... slowly going to read the entire 40 volume series.

    I'm reading the complete works of "Shakespeare" and the complete works of "Charles ****ens". I love the classics and have read these works over and over. So many great books to read and so little time..:)

    On the Run: A Mafia Childhood by Gregg Hill and Gina Hill

    It’s a book from the point of view of Henry Hill’s kids. (from Goodfellas fame)
  • The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared by Jonas Jonasson. Been a long time since I've laughed out loud that much reading a book.

    Finished The Stupidest Angel, by Christopher Moore last night. One of the funniest books I've ever read and I highly recommend it!

    Then you will likely love his other books as well.' Lamb' was my favorite.

    I loooove the Discworld series! Favourite is the Nightwatch, though 5th Elephant is a close second. You're going to have a great time!

    I just finished Deeply Odd by Dean Koontz and Kiss the Dead and Bullet by Laurell K Hamilton. I can usually read one every day or two if I only read at lunch at work

    Season of Migration to the North by Tayeb Salih. One of the best books I've read in my life, definitely in the top 10 or maybe top 5... And I work at a book publishing. :)

    Miranda Hart-is it just me?
  • Sounds like some good books. Who has a book collection? Not 2 books but a book stand or shelve full of books?

    I do. In fact, I'm an English teacher and, depressingly, I own just about as many books as my school has in its 'library' ...

    Last book I read for pleasure rather than to teach at work was Henry James' 'The Turn Of The Screw'.
