Which books does everyone never tire of reading time and time again, always finding something new every time, just that feeling of satisfaction when a book really speaks to you or is something you can relate to or simply just makes you laugh out loud.
Mine are:-
Therapy - David Lodge
Mission - Patrick Tilley
Cider with Roadies - Stuart Maconie
The war diaries of Spike Milligan
How Mumbo-Jumbo Conquered the world - Francis Wheen
I always have one or all of these books on the go at one time or another

I enjoy reading Think Big by Ben Carson, M.D. He is a well known neurosurgeon, surgeries on/with the brain...separating twins, removing half of brain, etc.

andy, I used to be a voracious reader. But now with a 2 year old, the only books I am reading these days are: Harold and the Purple Crayon, Where the Wild THings Are, The Cat in the Hat, Curious George...well you get the idea. But the last book I read (pre-motherhood) was "Anyone You Want Me to Be" by by John Douglas and Stephen Singular. It's the story of a Serial Killer who preyed on women via the Internet. I highly recommend it to anyone with a morbid curiousity or anyone who likes abnormal Psychology.
