Iām reading āSatan in St.Maryāsā by Paul Doherty. Itās a Medieval mystery (one of my fave genres) and is brilliant so far.
Its ok so far only read the first chapter, I preferred How to kill a mocking bird, Frankenstein is what my son choose.
The Glass Palace by Indian writer Amitav Ghosh. Itās set in Burma, Bengal, India, and
Malaya, from the fall of the Konbaung Dynasty in Mandalay, through the Second World War to modern times. I donāt feel the characters are very rounded, however the details about life at the time and the historical events are fascinating.

Having Death announce his (Terry Pratchetās) death was very appropriate. Iām currently reading Raising Steam and have always promised myself that I would read all the DiscWorld novels in order and now seems like right time. Unfortunately most of my collection is with my parents on the other side of the country and might take a while for me to get back.

I heard about the tweet to announce his passing, it made me chuckle but also shed a tear. I know he will live on for many a generation through his work.
Time to be Earnest by PD James.
Is that good?
Iām looking for a new book for once iv finished Brent weeks prism series
Everyone should read āThe Truthā by Terry Pratchett. On one level itās a biting satire about the media and at the same time itās an incredibly entertaining romp through the world of fantasy and laugh out loud funny. I also revisited āWyrd Sistersā yesterday, which is also one of my all time favorite books.

I was lucky enough to meet Terry Pratchett back in the mid 90ās. I took my son to an event local to me and my boy managed to get 3 books and the map signed by TP and the illustrator Stephen Briggs.

Thats lovely to have been able to meet him, I bet your boy was thrilled.
Wow-thatās a lot of reading! I donāt usually read two books on the same day, because I like to be faithful 
Canāt tell you how much I miss the ones that have walked! I may just have to buy them againā¦

Yes itās quite interesting, it a bit of her autobiography. She had a varied life.
Iām reading Stephen Kings Black House at the mo, Iām having trouble getting into it though. Has anyone read it? is it worth persevering?

You lucky thing, I would have loved to meet Sir Terry Pratchett! Iāve been reading his books since I was 18 (thatās more years than I care to mention!) I actually shed a tear when I heard heād passed away. You almost feel you know an author when youāve read all their books. I was the same when Anne McCaffrey passed on
