The Sisters Brothers, Patrick deWitt
From the Booker List. Read on the kindle. Quirky tale of gunslingers in the Wild West. If I hadn't read it on the kindle I would lend it to you. That's a recommendation.
Buy it from amazon here.
Call the Midwife, Jennifer Worth
Recommended by Granny, and read on the kindle. True story of a midwife in the East End in the 1950s. If you like your realism gritty and grimy, this is the book for you.
Buy it from amazon here.
My Booky Wook, Russell Brand
Borrowed from Alex. Read the American version with footnotes. The footnotes are the funniest bit.
Buy from amazon here.
First Book of the Year - Pigeon English by Stephen Kelman
From the Booker List. Read on the kindle. Harri from Ghana tries to make sense of English culture at school and in the high rise where he lives. Loved the language. Not keen on the ending.
