Re: What book are you currently reading?
I am now reading A season on the brink by Guillem Ballague. It's a good read.

Its a fanstastic read, Sutty - you won't regret it. Marquez is brilliant. If he catches your fancy, Love in a Time of Cholera is highly recommended.

I believe that the phrase you meant to use was "a right riveting read".

Have just received Hombre from the good folks at play.com.
Got it in a 3 for £14 with the Bourne Identity and the Bourne Ultimatum. (Supremacy wasn't part of the deal for some reason.)

"The Unbearable Lightness of Being in Aberystwyth", the 3rd of the Pryce novels.

It has a slower start than the previous two books, however it does have an amnesiac monkey that is a former astronaut, and a dodgy gelati.

Has this one got the same characters as the first one (which I thought was very good) ?

Indeed it has - the second one ("Last Tango in Aberystwyth") was the slickest thusfar, though.

If you like Malcolm Pryce, have a read of some Jasper Fforde, top notch stuff.

Thanks. I'll keep an eye out for the second and third Pryce books.

Re: What book are you currently reading?
I've just started Brave New World by Aldous Huxley and someone bought me that Gary Imlach Book - My father and other working class heros (seems to have a Blue Shite edge to it though).

Still, should keep me busy for a while
