Finished The Road last night. Horrific and beautiful, sadly not in equal measure.
One of the best books I've ever read. Looking forward to revisiting the film.
9.5/10.
If you enjoyed this then give Swan Song by Robert R McCammon a go, a little less bleak but a great read.
Just finished this.... its fudgeing quality!!!Reading Gone (Leona Deakin) with my eldest and again, a serious page turner that we're both gobbling up, multiple chapters at a time for bed time reading.
Reading hunger games with the youngest and its absolute mustard... onto the 2nd hook in the series (catching fire) and 3 chapters in, its setting up what I think will be a cracking sequel. She is 9 so perfect age for this. Not too much to explain, a few bits here and there but she loves it especially with the female heroine.
Happy for any recommendations.
Harry Potter was the second book i picked up as I loved the film.... now I'm an official pot head, I'm not ashamed to say so...I love young adult dystopian books (even though I'm not quite such a young adult anymore!) and my favourites are The Chaos Walking Trilogy by Patrick Ness and The Enemy series by Charlie Higson. The first Patrick Ness book I struggled with the first few chapters and put it down. Started again much later and then couldn't put it down. Possibly my all time favourite series. A friend of mine read them with his 9 year old daughter and they both loved them, although I will warn anyone reading them,The same happened with Harry Potter (had to come back to it and start again) which turned out to be another big favourite. Seems I have to come back a second time for a book to end up in my top reads list! I enjoyed the Hunger Games but personally felt they drifted off a little as they went on.if you're an animal lover, there's a bit in book 1 that's quite upsetting. Anyone I know that's read them has been traumatised by the same part
Try the audio book mate, it was excellently narrated and gave me the boost to get into the second in the series... but the second didn't grab me enough to crash on with the rest.I couldn’t get into Mortal Engines :/

Working my way through The Third Option in an attempt to final read all the Mitch Rapp novels (prequels not included)
Very much enjoying and really does have feels of old school Clancy
Have the following lined up as well on Kindle if fancy a change / break from series
Just taking a look, but 18 in the series? Seems a bit overkill. Are they worth it? I gave up on Clancy once he started 'co-writing'.
