    What are people reading?

    Gone a bit book crazy the last few months.

    Reading the Bourne books atm.

    Didnt know there were 8 books. On the 2nd one now.

    Brilliant so far. Nothing like the films and better than the films.

    Planning on getting the Jurassic Park books tomorrow.

    Any more recommendations?

    Any Crichton is fun, though the more recent ones aren't as good. Starting with Congo. Except I liked the one with nanotechnology. I've never read the Great Train Robbery but I bet it's a blast. Cripps -- you like fantasy sometimes? Check out George RR Martin's Fire and Ice books -- the ones that HBO has made a TV show out of.

    I'm reading J Erwin, Classroom of Choice right now



    It's cool. It makes sense

    Been thinking of starting with Bernard Cornwell´s Saxon Tales series. Anyone read it? (5 or 6 books if I remember well).

    Just about to start "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo". Everyone keeps going on about these books/films so I thought I'd make a start on them.

    Got Carl Sagan, Jonathan Safran Foer, David Foster Wallace, Aldous Huxley, Cormac McCarthy, Christopher Hitchens and George Orwell on the reading list.

    Just finishing a quick Tom Sharpe (the new Wilt one) and have just finished Stephen King's memoir, On Writing.

    I'm reading the signs. The last one said "Beware of the Dog". But which dog? there are so very many of them in the streets. Don't be deceived by their wagging tales, it may not mean they are happy to see you.

    Re-reading the Manda Scott Boudicea books, Ach you should look out for The Name Of The Wind by Patrick Rothfuss, blindingly good.
