Just finished Death of a glutton by M.C. Beaton.This is the first Hamish Macbeth mystery I have read and enjoyed it as much as the Agatha Raisin books. I have a few more in the series, so I can while away the hours....

Obliquity by John Kay
Why our Goals are best achieved indirectly
It picks up themes like why the happiest people don't chase happiness; why the most profitable companies are not profit-orientated

Just finished The Ruby In The Smoke by Phiip Pullman. Loved it and have now started The Shadow Of The North. I'll be looking for some more now
Bought a few books in local charity shops recently, and this is the only one that has held my attention:
'The American Boy' by Andrew Taylor.
The 'boy' in question is Edgar Allan Poe who was at school in Stoke Newington in 1819 whilst his family lived in London for a short time.
Great Expectations by Charles Dickens and Jeffrey Gitomer's Little Green Book of How to Get Your Way
Right now I am reading the Program book for the Kentucky Derby!
I find i dont have the patience or concentration to read these days so i listen to audio books instead. At the moment im listening to Charlaine Harris book no 7 of the Southern Vampire series, All Together Dead.

Currently reading The Fall Of The West by Adrian Goldsworthy, about the collapse of the Roman Empire
Just finished Sanctus by Simon Toyne, no immediate verdict, i need to mull it over for a while.
Island of Bones by Imogen Robertson was excellent, she is fast becoming one of my favourite authors.
Trying to decide wether to start Prophecy by SJ Parris or Hanging Hill by Mo Hayder next.
Decisions, decisions!
Just got Earth's Children (6) - Land of the Painted Caves by Jean M Auel.
Enjoyed the previous ones so looking forward to getting started....

Nice to see this thread resurrected. Well done whoever dredged it up!
At the moment I'm re-reading a Heyer whodunnit, Detection Unlimited, and a Grisham, The Appeal. Nice bit of escapism. I've recently started doing a day a week in the local bookshop (bliss!) and I get a discount off all books, plus any in the "pound boxes" are free... swoon!
