Just finished Pete Sousa's book "Shade" about the differences between Trump and Obama - VERY TOPICAL - tell me about the last book you read - need inspiration.

On a mooch

Last two books Tattooist of Auschwitz and just finished Talking with Psychopaths & Savages.

Next up The Search Party by Simon Lelic - Sadie Saunders is missing. Five friends set out into the woods to find her. But they're not just friends... they’re suspects. This was never a search party, it’s a witch hunt.

Oh my days everyone seems to be reading the Tattooist...I may need to read it as I've heard it's very interesting!

Also that description of The Search Party sounds so intriguing!

One of the last books I have read is The Little Big Things by Henry Fraser who ended up paralyzed from the shoulders down...it really puts life in perspective and makes you think of the things you take for granted

I am all for finding the positive things in life so I found it really interesting

Stockport

Still working on Jerusalem by Alan Moore. During that, have most recently finished The Walled Orchard by Tom Holt. Graphic novel Strangers In Paradise by Terry Moore (no relation), also re-read all The Umbrella Academy (individual issues).

In progress, Rusty Brown by Chris Ware, and Billionaires by Daryl Cunningham.

Always keep handy: poetry by Dylan Thomas, Omar Khayyam, William Blake. Never far away from: my mother's copy of The Bible from when she was at Sunday School, I keep it wrapped in a silk scarf that I bought her. Very seldom open it, but is one of my more precious possessions.

On the pile waiting to be read when I get a spare year or three - the Pyat tetrology by Michael Moorcock.

I Heard You Paint Houses....by Charles Brandt

Recently turned into the film The Irishman

As usual not as good as the book but still worth a watch

I go through phases of reading books, then like just now I haven't read any in months

Maybe I just need a swimming pool, the sun and a cold beer to get into a reading mood
