Can't get motivated to read anything just now but really enjoyed Graham Fields books and Nathan Milward's books were really good.
Icelandic Crime novels by Arnaldur Indridason are absolutely brilliant

"Icelandic Crime novels by Arnaldur Indridason"
I will look him up.
I found Danny Baker's autobiographies hilarious.
I’ve been rereading some Christopher Brookmyre (One Fine Day in the Middle of the Night, Pandemonium & Attack of the Unsinkable Rubber Ducks) and Carl Hiaasen (Tourist Season & Razor Girl) recently - light, easy, entertaining reading. 👍
I could do with something new though, might have a look for something on Amazon.
Three Dawg, Danny Baker has written enuff Biogs for a tribe if comedians.!
JimRidesthis, Brookmyre rings a bell, Hiassan is s blank.
Will have a look at both.
I don't recollect an Amazon writing anything ? 🤔🤡
I have bought an Indridason for my dearest to introduce a new Author to her.
And
I bought a couple of Danny Baker's to while away a wet November day !
Having read the first two of Danny Baker's books which I found hillarious and interesting -- I am now half way through no.3.
I never ever got into any of the (in my opinion banal rubbish) TV that him and Evans did but the books reveal a very different Danny Baker.
Three Dawg thanks for the suggestion.
Hamish, As for Indridason's books they remain unread.
Fortitude has been enough dark scandi for the moment !
You're most welcome. Danny Baker was always at his best on radio. His early shows on Greater London Radio (GLR) were genius. Ditto Chris Evans and Chris Morris. What a brilliant station that was, it was the only thing about London I missed when I moved up here in 1992.
I think that's why I discarded Baker - I saw him as a brash London person with stupid money pals and it was the complete antitheses of wot I were into, Work and Play !
The books were in fairness a revelation and I actually found book 3 pretty harrowing.
I wish him well whatever he is currently doing!
