Ulysses Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Not for everyone, but I have a strong interest in the Irish language so I'm finding it fascinating. We do actually have (at least) 32 words for field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougal Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 (edited) Pretty good crime/legal thriller. Would make a decent film imho. Edited December 29, 2021 by dougal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NANOJAMBO Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 The title it totally misleading. An absolutely fascinating biography about a genius who acheived world fame in the face of incredible odds. Would definitley recommend it.

dougal Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Typical Patterson novel. Entertaining enough but never going to win any awards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Order Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 After seeing to film I decided to give Dune a go. It's really dull and I'm struggling to get through it but I never start a book and don't finish it. Won't be reading the rest of the series.

I was the same, didn't enjoy it apart from the last 100 pages or so. Saying that I didn't let it fool me and as such I too won't be reading any of the other Dune books.

Loved the stuff around his move to Newcastle - real surprise in store there around where he could've gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
