You realise that being a kid in mid-West America wasn't a million miles from the UK. Maybe just 10 years ahead.

OK, cheers. Possibly, but I think Bryson's at his best when he's pointing out how ridiculous some things are rather than how good some things are. For anyone that does much travelling in Europe, Neither Here nor There truly is a 'must read'.

Any of you read All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr? I've just had it heartily recommended to me.

I love Cormac McCarthy, read most of his including that one. The Border trilogy was a bit lighter, but some of his stuff is incredibly dark. Have you read Child of God?

Not read it but I have already got it lined up on the kindle!

When you've read it watch Schindler's List to cheer yourself up.

I'm just getting to the end of Robert Goddard's Into The Blue, which you recommended I think. Very good read thanks. I'll pick up another at some point, probably the other featuring Harry Barnett.
