I like a good autobiography or the telling of a true story. I get bored of most novels about half way through, start another book and then end up having about five or six different books on the go, none of which that are particularly interesting me!

Can anyone recommend something new fact based books then? I've completely exhausted my personal library.

Just started The Long Way Round, the one where Ewan McGregor and his mate go round the world on motorbikes. Loved the TV show and the book is so far living up to it.

Are You Dave Gorman is pretty sweet and will make you do a little wee if you read it in bed. Again a book from the TV show. Highly recommended.

I'd reccomend those two football books for you, especially Morbo, it's class. Another one that will inform you and give you a new perspective on some stuff is the autobiography of Malcom X. See him change from street hustler to civil rights revolutionary and see his attitudes to race alter as he goes. He states that he knows he's going to be killed in it, how odd it must be to know you will be assasinated?
