Speaking of blood-sucking parasites living off the rest of humanity, I've just started reading Bram Stoker's Dracula for the first time.

I must say, given it was written at the tail end of the 19th century, it's absolutely riveting and there's really not much difference in the language.
It's so good I'd recommend it to anyone - and I don't generally read horror nor do I watch any of those vampire shows either ... I just thought I'd see what all the fuss was about ...

A great one coming soon, a novel about LU ;)

Haha, anything really. I like crime if I am reading fiction and almost anything interesting that is non-fiction. Autobiographies especially.

Will definitely look out for this much anticipated LU novel too :D

Probably not telling you anything new but if you type in 'Free' and 'classic crime' or similar in the Search on Amazon Kindle pages, you might have plenty to choose from.

The LU book I mentioned should be out in October, I believe :D ... it will be well publicised I suspect, on here at least :P

Now I'm reading The Lord of the Ring by John Tolkien in original. It's serious difficult for me but it's so interesting simultaneously.

And at all I very love to read. It's more interesting than watching movies. My country is a most reading country by right. 4 from 5 people are reading in a common transport.
So... there is a football! Let's play.

Did you know that there is a Leeds link to hobbits and stuff, fact fans? JRR Tolkien lectured at Leeds University for a short while before his books were published.

Leeds On The Road

Lord Of The Rings.

Uncanny eh :crazy: :D
