I am currently reading: The Black Death (Non Fiction) which I got last Saturday through a book fair.  It's really fascinating.

I've just finished the book "Snakehead", the 7th installment in the Alex Rider series.
A truly great book, Anthony Horowitz is a splendid writer!

Quote from: Nick on  
Hercule Poirot's Christmas, by Agatha christie..


What is Hercule Poirot's Christmas like Nick?  Is it any good?  

I've read most of Chritie's Poirot books with the exceptions of Hercule Poirot's Christmas (which the bookstore in Bern never stocks) and Curtain:Hercule Poirot's Last Case.

I hope to read it.  

Perhaps when I go to England (next week), I'll be able to buy it at Waterstones, along with many other books.

I just finished "Teacher Man" by Frank McCourt for a book club.  It was about a man and his experiences as a teacher in many different schools and how he handled the situations.

I'm starting Brian Jacques' third book in the dutchman series, "Voyage of Slaves".
