The unexpected vacation of George Thring.

Just about to start David Miller's Racing Through the Dark. Should be interesting.

On the Campaign Trail 72, again.

I don't think anyone, ever, has nailed political coverage as well as Hunter. Dude was a genius. Though I'm open to suggestions,

Second book in The Last Kingdom series, The Pale Horseman, and The Great Influenza. Plus three or four works of Scandi literary fiction.

It is!

I'm reading the Geraint Thomas book. I was surprised to find that my library has at least 8 or 9 cycling books of interest. When I have finished G's book, I will be reading 'Yoga for Cyclists'. (My cousin is here for the weekend and he said he has the latter book at home and the techniques described have helped with his aches and pains.)

I have just bought but not started Orphan X by Gregg Hurwitz ...

I only mention as it is currently on offer for £5 hardback at Tesco & has good reviews.

A couple of chapters in to The Silent Deep - the Royal Navy submarine service since 1945: Henessey & Jinks
A does what it says on the tin eye opener.

Finished "Allan's Wife", and started "True Grit", by Charles Portis, in preparation for rewatching the Coen Brothers' film this weekend.

It's the first time I've read the book, and I'm very taken with it - told in Mattie Ross' "voice", with her determination and self importance fairly leaping from the page.

I'm up to the chapter on declarations in "The Art of Captaincy", which is very interesting.

The Road to Little Dribbling

Bill Bryson's sequel to Notes From a Small Island, very similar and just as funny.

I'm reading that too!

I'm reading that too!

Me 3!

I'm reading Riding the Iron Rooster by Paul Theroux, not as good as The Great Railway Bazaar, but few books are.

Yorkshire Shepherdess, 1 husband, 8 children, 1,000 sheep by Amanda Owen. I enjoy her first book and this new one looks good too.

The Slave King. Why a bloke from Sussex working in Denmark would be interested in historical fiction about the conflict between Wessex and the Danes is anyone's business.
