What Book Are You Currently Reading ?

@Freedom blimey thats got a pretty high score on GoodReads, do you need much knowledge on the battle to enjoy it, I'm pretty limited in that respect but this sounds pretty decent.

You don't need any prior knowledge of the battle to enjoy it. It covers everything.

The movie Waterloo is very good, it goes well with the book.

Good stuff, I've added it to my 'To read' list which is currently sitting at 136 books, I'm going to have to trim that down a bit, some of the books have been on that list for 5 years, I can't even remember what they are.

I think I've got 4 books that I actually own that I have gotta read, then I'll be stocking up on a few more, I've given myself an Amazon ban, last month I spent over £60 on books so I've had to make a concerted effort to get through the ones I've already got.

I have to downsize our entire library. Literally hundreds of books and even first editions are not worth a lot any more. We are going to have to move to a smaller place and it is breaking me trying to decide what to keep and not. I have a lot of reference works from supporting students across the subject spectrum, My boxing collection, seminal stuff on sound, technical stuff on recording, art and installations etc, music and then the film making and photography books. I am writing more and more for a living now and so I actually tend to read very quick and easy fiction to unwind.

I got rid of a fuck load of books a while ago, I really wish I hadn't even the shit ones I miss, I got rid of about 200 I think, I probably should have only got rid of about 20 or 30 of them max

A lot of Napoleonic prisoners were kept here in Plymouth and then Princetown on the moor. Napoleon himself was kept prisoner on a ship anchored in Plymouth Harbor for a while too.
