Now Reading – Rose Madder

Just started “Rose Madder” by Stephen King. I love King’s books so hopefully this one will be good.

The Road – Cormac McCarthy

“The Road” tells the story of a man and his son, referred to only as “the man” and “the boy” or “the child” throughout the book, we don’t find out their names. There has been a cataclysmic event that has killed most of the people in America, there is no mention of what has happened in the rest of the world but I can only assume that this is an end of the world type situation and each country is in much the same state as America.

Now Reading – The Road

Just starting “The Road” by Cormac McCarthy. Saw the film a while back and my Dad recommended the book.

Lone Wolf – Jodi Picoult

“Lone Wolf” is the most recent book from Jodi Picoult and tells the story of Luke Warren and his family. Luke is a conservationist who has managed to integrate himself into wolf packs and spent time in Canada living with wild wolves. Luke’s daughter, Cara, lives with him after having decided she preferred his slightly unusual lifestyle to living with her Mum, Georgie, her new husband, Joe, and their twin children, Elizabeth and Jackson.

Now Reading – Lone Wolf

My Mum just treated me to “Lone Wolf” by Jodi Picoult, so I’m reading that now. Looking forward to it so much!

Hollywood Crows – Joseph Wambaugh

“Hollywood Crows” continues the story of the Police Officers based at Hollywood Station in Los Angeles. This is the second book in the series, the first being “Hollywood Station”, and centres mainly around Community Relations Officers, known as Crows, who deal with what are known as quality of life issues.

Harry Potter Character Focus – Severus Snape

In the final character focus I look at a character who, I would say, has the most interesting character arc in the series, Severus Snape. Again, this focus looks at his entire journey from Philosopher’s Stone through to Deathly Hallows so there will be spoilers ahead if you haven’t read all the books.

Now Reading – Hollywood Crows

When looking for something to read next I noticed this on my shelf and realised I’d never read it! Normally books don’t get shelves until I’ve read them but I bought “Hollywood Crows” in the Borders closing down sale when I was packing to decorate and it got packed and then shelved with the others when I unpacked.

If I Did It – The Goldman Family

For anyone who doesn’t know, “If I Did It” is a book written by OJ Simpson about the murders of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and a waiter, Ron Goldman.

Now Reading – If I Did It

After reading the lighthearted Walsh family tales I decided to take a diversion back to true crime with this strange hypothetical/confessional book written by OJ Simpson but published by the Goldman family. I have read it before so it’s not new to me.
