Haven't done anything of use today but I did finish Fractured by D J Molles. I'm now reading the next one Allegiance.
I am so enjoying them :j0 -

I've just finished 'A Man Called Ove'. By Fredrik Backman.
Superb. A gentle black comedy about a guy who wants to kill himself, but life keeps getting in the way.
I'm reading that at the moment and really enjoying it, some parts have had me chuckling.0 -

Must give it a try (again). I did borrow it in a batch of others from the library early this year but real-life got in the way of my reading them all before the return date. I wasn't allowed to renew that one as there was a waiting list for it:( so I had to take it back after reading only the first page.
Have put it on my list to borrow whenever they have it in. Thanks for the reminder:T0 -

Thanks for merging, zip. Unfortunately the MSE search function is of no use when the gremlins enter...
I was getting stuck into an eye-opening read yesterday, about 1/3 of the way through when I put it down and to my annoyance left it behind!:
So guess how pleased I was to pick this up from the chazzer earlier, a book with similar themes:
Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!
"No man is worth, crawling on the earth"- adapted from Bob Crewe and Bob Gaudio
Hope is not a strategy ...A child is for life, not just 18 years....Don't get me started on the NHS, because you won't win...I love chaz-ing!0 -
Finished The Remaining: Allegiance by D J Molles. Now waiting for the next one to arrive.
While I wait I'm going to read Piranha by Clive Cussler and Boyd Morrison.

I love reading and keep meaning to make a list of all the books I read - this might help me get started.
