I finished The Miracle of Castel Di Sangro over Christmas. A remarkable book about football and much more. Unique, accessible and well worth the hype.

Just finished this. Wasn’t sure what to expect but it was a very enjoyable, quintessentially British yarn. You can see why it’s been so popular.

Seem to be going through a sports autobiography phrase. Just finished Barbarian Days - a Surfing Life by William Finnegan. It won the William Hill sports book of the year and very good it is too. Now on El Diego, the Maradona autobiography. Great book so far.

Theft by Peter Carey and 31 programmes by someone or other

Oh, just finished the Wasp Factory by Ian Banks. An incredible, dark piece of work. A little disjointed but immense all the same

To Kill a Mockingbird. Never read it, thought I should. Only 20 pages in but already loving it.

Secret Histories by Donna Tartt

Moneyball. A big thumbs up from me. Before that I read Dance Dance Dance my Murakami. Excellent stuff.

Bought it :thumbsup:

What's it like? Haunted was far too sick for my liking - the straw that broke the camel's back for myself and Chuck, but I would always give him another go if I thought there was something more readable out there. PS Non Fiction by CP is a good read.

Could work. Did you see Enduring Love? A very good adaptation.

Been thinking about buying this. Would you give it a strong recommendation? Is it as good as The Last Party by John Harris? That was a terrific read.

Just finished The Innocent by Ian McEwan. As dark as ever...
