The Hungry Caterpillar.

Tough read but i'm progressing nicely.

How long have you been reading it for?

Yes quite enjoyed it. Slightly overrated
a good read.

Thanks. I've downloaded it.

I figured out how "the very hungry caterpillar" would end much earlier in the book than i usually would ;-)

Just finished yesterday. I can't believe the catipillar died from a heart attack after eating 9 bargain buckets and 12 mcdonald's cheese burgers.

Really enjoying this.

Read this and The Twelve and have the final one downloaded and ready to go, enjoyed the first two that much I downloaded the unabridged audio books of both for when I am in the car on business and they are just a good a listen as they are a read

I've stuttered a bit on the second. I'll get back to it but I was a bit miffed it started to go back to before the fall. We've gone past that FFS, I want to know whats happening now, not what happened 90 fucking years ago.

Just read the synopsis, doesn't appeal sorry. May be a bit too dark for me.

Thinking, Fast and Slow.
I'm about half way through, but so far it's just confirmed what I had already believed anyway. Interesting read all the same, but if you actually take in what's written, we really are nothing more than meat puppets dancing to the tune our environment plays for us.

There was an interesting problem posed early on:

A bat and ball cost £1.10. The bat costs £1 more than the ball. How much does the ball cost?

Most people answer incorrectly. He is showing how our intuition can so easily be wrong.

Dying Day by Robert Ryan, just finished it - nice cold war Berlin set thriller, steady 8 outta 10. Got another one lined up, Leaving Berlin by Jospeh Kanon

Read Where my heart used to beat by Sebastian Faulks a while back. Read a few of his now, and I still cant make up my mind if I enjoy reading him or not. I'm drawn to them, but afterwards I half wish I hadnt bothered. Dont think I'll bother again.

I know what you mean and sometimes this over egging can lead to skipping through pages but I did stick with it and it was worthwhile

Currently reading the first in another supposed trilogy called Soloman Creed which has tag line "perfect for fans of Lee Child and Stephen King" never before have I seen those two authors lumped together lol. Only a few chapters in so early days yet.
