"I'm currently reading 'The Places Inbetween' by Rory Stewart. It's his account of walking across Afghanistan in 2002. He's not a natural story teller. I'm a reader when the mood takes me kind of person but I've usually got at least one book on the go. " Do you choose your books randomly or on recommendations | |||

"I'm an avid reader, on a Kindle thou, not often paper books. I'm just about to start Missing Child by Patricia Macdonald. Previously i had been reading books by D E Stevenson, i have read them all many, many times, my fav being Amberwell. Mostly i read thrillers or crime books." I should have put that i read on the Kindle app on my phone or my actual Kindle, i use both. | |||

"I thought Stewart had a genuine joy of history and of people and of human variety. But nothing like the utterly charming delight in human idiocy and human silliness that makes Bryson so charming. I hate not finishing a book once I've started it, which has its plus points but is fundamentally a stupid position. There are books you can't keep your nose out of, and books you have to struggle against throwing across the room at the nearest wall. I'd be happier if I joyously felt free to do the latter - as it is, I plod on, grimly. The result is that I mainly read old books, the classic ones, which time has baptised as being worth reading, and I have a better hit rate than when I try to read something just published. The J K Rowling / Robert Galbraith detective books have been one of my few recent modern literary pleasures." I'm ruthless, if I'm struggling to read it I abandon it or skip swathes. | |||

I'm a reader when the mood takes me kind of person but I've usually got at least one book on the go. " Read that earlier this year. Found it a little underwhelming, maybe alot to do with the barren nature I'd Afghanistan, especially after the damage done to it. Felt the rest of the walk ie through Iran might have been more interesting. Read some great books this year, currently relaxing with Patrick Stewarts autobiography and another about AI. | |||

"I am also probably one of the very few people who doesn't like Bill Bryson. I have read two of his books - A short history of nearly everything and The Body: A guide for occupants. The body was relatively better. But I found it really hard to read the short history as he seemed to take detours from the topic way too often. Everytime he talked about a scientist, he spent paragraphs telling us about where he grew up in, who he married and how many kids he had, etc. It really put me off. The body was relatively better in that aspect." Neither is exactly his best work. I enjoyed the one about the trail walk. | |||

"I read a lot of Medical Biographies these days.
