RE: Do you read books?

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

Yes, I read books. Usually about 1 or 2 per week. Rarely, they can be a paperback that someone has lent to me. But mostly, I read PDF versions on my phone.

I find it much easier to read electronic books than the printed format. Especially as I usually read at night with the light off.

Currently I'm reading the Kate Brannigan series by Val Mcdermid. Which are about a Manchester-based private detective. I especially enjoy these as I worked for several years in Manchester. So I'm familiar with many of the locations in the books.

Similarly, my previous author was A A Dhand, who bases most of his plots around Bradford which I know very well. His main character is a police inspector called Virdee. Which is the title of a soon-to-be-released TV series. So I'm looking forward to comparing the screen and written versions of his work.

I'm thinking of rereading the works of Leon Uris next. As I remember enjoying his books immensely, many years ago. But maybe I'll get other ideas from comments here?

Often, I'll enjoy a title or a series so much that I want more. So, in recent years, I've started Internet searching for books similar to what I've been reading. Which I find is a great way to find new authors that interest me.

That's exactly my problem. If I find an author that I enjoy, I tend to read all the available books. At the moment I'm reading Sharpe's Novels by Bernard Cornwell and I've read the first 18 books out of 24 lol.
