What book are you reading ...

May we have a little list please Jay

That would take too long. As you can see from my post count I have very little spare time to spend on here.

Do you have a book in mind Jay? Praps a magazine like Redvee, get you into the swing of things? Or are you going to dive straight into A la recherché?

Don't do French. It would need to be short chapters. James Patterson or something.

Jay: As I applaud the efforts of the great unwashed in the noble art of readage I will send you a signed copy of the biography I am writing. It is "The Life, Times & Achievements of Paul Cheesedale."

Would you like to contribute a paragragh ? I'll give you a credit for it.

On my desk in various stages of completion : The Crow Road, Cash: An Autobigraphy, A Journey to the Centre of the Earth, War Cries on Horseback and a Harry Crews novel that a customer gave me which I 'must read'.

I'm halfway through The Crow Road and still not sure if I've read it before. As it has the following elements I cannot disentangle it from rest of Banks' work:

1. A Big House
2. A Hot Girl (who may be your cousin)
3. Obscure Classic Cars
4. Storms
5. Lakes
6. Dotty Avuncular Characters
7. Stoners Discussing Politics and/or Music
8. Love triangles

Might it be that you saw the excellent mini-series?

I do like a good auto-biography. Easy reading for someone like me who lacks the ability/patience to read a novel. However I wouldn't even use Tisdale's auto-biog to qipe my arse with.

Yes, I thought I had judged your readage tastes but the word underlined has got me beat.
