Hello all off on holiday and need to take a book or 2? Last year Grounds for Divorce helped me while away the hours sitting by the pool. I seem to remember a sticky not so long ago plugging a QPR related book?? If not I like to read sporting related books / autobiograhies etc and quite like books along the theme of Martina Cole. Any suggestions would be appreciated (and NO, 50 shades of f&cking grey or whatever it's called need not be mentioned!!!) . Thanks |  |

Recently read Moneyball, The Blind Side and Friday Night Lights which I'd recommend.
And Miracle of Castel Di Sangro is still outstanding. |  | | |

If you enjoy Martina Cole then you may like Lee Childs.
He has written loads of books about "Jack Reacher" - Perfect holiday fare.
I've also been allowed to read The Hunger Games on my wifes Kindle and enjoyed that as well.
You may have gathered, i don't read anything that's too taxing on the brain   |  |
| I've found a team sheet for the weekend - anyone interested ? |

Not specifically what you asked for, but currently I'm reading Dangerous Nation by Robert Kagan and its one of the best things I've read in years. Its basically a deconstruction of the American myth that they're a peace loving people who only start wars for good reasons. Kagan is complete Reaganite as well so its not a Michael Moor-esque swipe at the American war machine but a step by step attack by a true America lover on the fantasy of American exceptionalism,

The Big Short by Michael Lewis which I really enjoyed.
Didn't read it as such, I actually had it read to me. First time I've tried an audiobook and I would highly recommend. Lazy I know but very relaxing.

Anything by Wilbur Smith, I especially recommend River god and The Seventh Scroll if a mix of ancient Egypt & modern day float your boat, brilliant imo. For all out action adventure he's hard to beat.
In a similar vein Christian Jacq's Ramses seires was also excellent & although he's a total twunt Jeffery Archer is a master story teller & have thoroughly evjoyed everything I've read
Actually written for kids but the Hunger games trilogy is a real page turner too
