I've just finished John Steinbeck's The Grapes Of Wrath. Great book, don't really know why it has taken me so long to read it.

I've just finished John Steinbeck's The Grapes Of Wrath. Great book, don't really know why it has taken me so long to read it.
One of the best books ever for me, I've read it twice and only started listening on audible in the past few days (haven't read it in over 10 years), the reader on audible is superb, dramatises every part, highly recommended.

I'm just finishing off Travellers in the Third Reich by Julia Boyd. Really good read - well written, thoroughly researched and packed with fascinating anecdotes.

Finished The Hidden Girl and other stories - loved nearly every story, great sci-fi stories with a not-so-thinly veiled eco-warning message.

Starting Circe by Madeleine Miller next. Not my usual kind of thing but it comes recommended.

Reading Finders Keepers by Mark Bowden

It's a true story about a guy who found 1.2 million dollars that literally fell off an armoured car! It was made into a movie "Money for Nothing" starring John Cusack that I saw years ago. The true story is way different from the movie!

Finally finished the Witcher series today. The last two books are phenomenal reading, in particular the Tower of The Swallow, for me.

John Crow's Devil - This was breathtakingly written. The pace was a bit all over the place but the detail and style was incredible.

Finished Blacklands by Belinda Bower in the early hours. Gripping read.

Next up is Unravelling Oliver by Liz Nugent

Elena Ferrante's Those Who Leave and Those Who Stay

A book I ordered just arrived today, called Hollywood Wants to Kill You. Seems good so far.
