I read Zamyatin's "We" earlier this year - definitely worth reading as a landmark dystopian novel - will be interested to hear what you think Nemo...

Started "The fountain overflows" last night. Rebecca West.

This will not prevent me from chasing up the December book, however.

Amazing how one can have 40 odd items on a wish list on Amazon and wait for ages for the price to drop........... and then over the space of three days pick up three books for 99p each.

anyhows:

Black Out by Ragnar Jonasson (3rd in the Dark Iceland series) and
No Country for Old Men by Cormac McCarthy

are both 99p on the kindle store at the moment ;-)

The other one I picked up is Orphan X by Greg Hurwitz.

Thanks for the heads up on Blackout, have been waiting patiently for a price drop on the 3rd after reading the first two back to back ;-)

Would anyone be able to help me with a present buying dilemma? 🎁 I'm looking for recently published (i.e. in the last year-ish) fiction, the sort that you read and immediately want to tell everyone else to read, you have to, go on, you'll really be missing out if you don't, go on go on go on... That type of thing. Not read much* new stuff this year, so all suggestions gratefully received. Hardback or paperback.

* Only one I can remember is His Bloody Project, which doesn't quite work for me.

Any particular genre beebop? I really enjoyed Girl On A Train if you like slightly trashy thrillers. Or I've just finished The Watchmaker of Filigree Street which is probably a steampunk kind of book.

I came onto the thread to say that the book I'm reading currently (We) has just been the answer to a University Challenge question B-)
