Finished Jack Reacher #1 - quite enjoyed it and will get #2 after pay day
Started The Twelve by Justin Cronin - really enjoyed The Passage and this is the second in a trilogy with the third due out later this year (I think). Feels a little bit The Stand Era Stephen King which is a good thing I think.

Seen the film so many times it's time I read the book.

Fascinating account of the last moments of various infamous people in early 20th century Britain.

I'm a little behind as I've had a bit of a flurry recently.
Treasure Island & Kidnapped by RL Stephenson- Classics for a reason, good stories well written. Considering their age I think they are still remarkably accessible.
Piece of Cake & A Good Clean Fight (RAF Quartet 1 & 2) by Derek RObinson - Mixed bag the first book is a little like Catch 22 for the Battle of Britain. Amusing dialogue and obviously well researched I found it hard to put down - some obvious faults in style and story but carried by the good stuff. Second book, I ended up skimming big chunks before jumping to the end. Won't be getting any more.
Odyssey One series by Evan Currie - Good old fashioned Space Opera stuff, now onto the third book. Occasionally get's bogged down in detail and 'scientific' explanations but mostly fast paced action with lightly fleshed out characters you can relate to.
