    Right,

    the book club isnt the raging success we thought it would be, but it is a good way to expand your reading habits. (I would never have read life of Pi normally).

    So, in the interests of doing something I'll throw up a second Poll.

    Suggestions for books please :)


    2 being carried over from last poll:

    Vernon God Little by DBC Pierre
    Everything is illuminated by Jonathan Safron Foer

    In the middle of east of eden at the moment so that would be fairly handy for me, but this is second on the best seller list now and it looks like a good read.

    STAR OF THE SEA by JOSEPH O CONNOR.


    woof woof, spacedog, talk soon :)

    Just read The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini. I thought it was brilliant, its a coming of age story thats starts off in pre-Soviet Afganistan.It gives a fasinatiing insight into life in the middle east and life at this time. Its a Very Beutifull piece of fiction.

    I've never read Catcher In The Rye and this would be a good excuse to read it.
