If war is your thing read Anatomy of a Soldier by Harry Parker
Or Rain by Barney Campbell
Both contemporary books about the conflict in Afgan. There not your usual War Porn Andy McNabb style.
Brilliant written, funy, gripping and moving.
At the moment I am reading 2017 War With Russia by Sir Richard Shirraff, No nukes yet and Ironically brought on day it all kicked of against the Ruskies at the footy.
It’s not as good as the other two, bit like a British Tom Clancy

Missus has just bought me home Karl Pilkington's book Thatcher wrote about an idiot abroad, so hopefully it'll be as funny as the show.

Just finished the book 'KL'. Not usually a fan of WW2 books but this was a cracker.
Its about the lifespan of concentration camps from 1933 to 1945.
Its a pretty big tome but Jesus, its so worth it.

I used to read loads when I was younger, but struggle these days. Last book I read was Dictator by Robert Harris - I like his style and the story of power in ancient Rome told over his trilogy I do find fascinating,
Angel Delight - only if Butterscotch flavour!

I have liked the Tom Rob Smith's books - Child 44, Agent 60. Good thrillers but with a lot of accurate information about the goings on in the KGB and what life was like in Russia

I read the Martian last year and expected it to be shit.
Ended up reading it three times.
Strangely interesting book.

At Christmas I read Europe in Autumn. It was brilliant and i'd recommend it to any Le Carre lovers and anyone who hates Europe. Although, tgere is a very interesting twist at the end of the book.
