There is a book that I read, which I wouldn't normally think of, it is by my Uncle Roger . Points of View, A Valley Christian (with room for improvement) by R A Vowles. Such a good read, I bought it cos it was by my Uncle, but I am so glad I read it, got it on Amazon, about £6ish.

I find that other people authors of interest are to me interesting ...some I wouldn't read and some I have never heard of, but by descripition I will enjoy . I have even read an author of boredom because the book was recommended and enjoyed it ...like Grisham I had stopped reading but read a painted house.

Hi Teddy

Just been having a look at your uncle - was he the same man who painted those beautiful birds?

have got Painted House, but never read, not sure why, I know it was made into a film, but the book by my Uncle, well, surprised me, never been into poetry, but so funny, my 16 year old loves it ! The Summons and the I can't think of the name !!!!! Have got to have a look in my book case lol. Last summer I bought a lot of autobiographies, what I would call not nice ones, upsetting, enlightening and made me think how lucky I am. Will have a look and let you know.

I have most of Grisham's books. He writes a good story but sometimes gets a bit too technical with his law procedures and I get lost in those parts.

Only one I didn't like was The Bleachers. A whole book about one football match! American football at that!

"The God Delusion" by Richard Dawkins.

I'm reading Gallipoli - Attack From The Sea by Victor Rudenno. It's very interesting to me because an ancestor - Robert Brown - was the navigator on the E11 submarine that was victorious in the Dardenalles in WW1. He is mentioned a few times in the book.
