Anyone else reading this? 

I'm about half way through and it's been entertaining so far.

What was the book you actually wanted Phatomach? I might give that a read too.

Just finished it and would say its one of the best books I have read for a while. Wasn't sure what to expect but became thoroughly engrossed. Will try to post my thoughts on it later as we have to head to the Rio as were playing in this team thing today (watch out for team name  Cheesy )

loads available on amazon for 1p. what's the catch?

usually a hefty p&p charge

I'm a bit behind the rest of you.

Just ordered it 1p plus £2.75 p+p (blonde link used), I'm trying not to read the whole thread before it arrives Smiley

It's £2.50 for a brand new hardback on the book people
http://www.thebookpeople.co.uk/

Postage is £3.50 but free if you order > £25.

I bought the Life of Pi (also won the booker prize) in hardback for £2.50 and a couple of their collections. 24 books for £25!

I finished it yesterday,thoughly enjoyed it.This a is book i would have never read mainly due to the sleeve artwork which kinda put me off.
Is anyone still reading it or can we discuss it and someone pick a new title?
