If you liked it you should read his other book ugly americans- its about traders on the tokyo stock market and the shit that goes down.

Reading The Beach by Alex Garland at the moment.

What did you think?

I really enjoyed it. Every little section was written so well in different styles. The old man bit was my favourite.

I've just finished State of Fear by Crichton which as a standard commuting thriller that I'll never think about again. Read A Short History of Tractors in Ukranian which was wonderful. So tenderly written and with real insight, I'd recommend it to anyone.

Am just about to start The Sea that won the Booker Prize.

Oh, and I read Yes Man by Danny Wallace at the end of Jan and that was a lot funnier than I thought it would be, look out for the film version coming out next year.

I am reading 'its called a break up because its broken' its class
