Wellington Reads discussion

Welcome to the last What Are You Reading post for 2014!

I've just finished a really, really good read - Elizabeth Is Missing. This book was described as a thriller but it had some really funny parts throughout and was a really enjoyable read.

Next I'm onto The Silkworm as I thoroughly enjoyed The Cuckoo's Calling. What's everyone else reading this December?

I am waiting for my next two Really Good Books -'Us" by David Nicholls and 'Common People' by Alison Light- and in the mean time am on a Wodehouse binge - in particular the "Blandings " series. I saw the television series on UKTV and that got me into them. (We have the DVD here).They are really well-written (P.G. Wodehouse is a famous for his mastery of style as well as his marvellous sense of humour.) On the way you learn a lot about literature , history , classics , mythology and life in general. They are wonderful mood-enhancers. Warmly recommended.

I'm reading Words of Radiance by Brandon Sanderson, book 2 of The Stormlight Archive. The first book in the series - The Way of Kings - was great, and so far this book is just as good.

I'm currently reading Looking for Alaska. Next I'll read On The Beach. Looking forward to more reading time over the Xmas holidays :)

Finished Looking for Alaska the other day. It was the first book I'd read of John Green's and I thought it was very well done. I'll definitely be reading more of his work in the New Year.

I've started reading On the Beach. It's a bit slow to get in to but once I get a bit more time to read I should get more into it. All these christmas parties and get-togethers are cutting into my reading time haha.

Anyone got any interesting reads lined up over the Christmas break?

Trying to get through Wool by Hugh Howey -> enjoyable at times, not so enjoyable at others. Uneven in a word!

I'm working my way through Aztec - quite a tome! Interesting, but slow

Looks like a good book Kirsten...that'll keep you busy over the break :)
I just finished Half of the human race...my last book of 2014 and it was a good one :)
