I read Cosa Nostra some time ago, quite a good book.

Today i finished Jeremy Clarkson's book: The World according to Clarkson, not too bad, quite funny at points. Now am going to start reading Clarkson on cars

You should read The World According To Garp, that's one funny book.

Now reading On The Road. Just because it's such a cultbook really.

[Seven]

I just purchased "Winning at all costs: a scandalous history of Italian soccer". I have been skipping between chapters and reading different events and it is really interesting. Its written by some biased English idiot so it can be anti-Italian at times. Really good i suggest for any football fans. I haven't read a book in 2 years and i think i wanna start reading again. I used to enjoy it.

Pitch Invasion: Adidas, Puma and the Making of Modern Sport by Barbara Smit.

Interesting read. Shows just how much power the big companies have when it comes to influencing sport.

The Art of War- Sun Tzu.

I've heard about it for a long time and always wanted to read it, and it's really worth the hype. I have an abridged, translated version. It's now my favourite book. The philosophies in this book can relate to so much different aspects of life, not only war, but everyday life, business and sometimes even football. The guy that wrotethis book, Sun Tzu is a genius.

Finally...: 'The Kite Runner - Khaled Hosseini'
Painfully beautiful.

5. not my cup of tea, but well written none the less. The film is supposed to be worth seeing. are that enough generic book review responses?

Really? I wasn't really that impressed.

Just read The Great Gatsby.

Lots of fun.

The Italian Job by Gianluca Vialli and Gabriele Marcotti.

Certainly worth reading to better understand the views of Serie A and EPL fans and why the teams in the leagues play the way they do.

Did you read the whole thing or an abridged version? I read the abridged version, they probably took out the best things from the original which may have been drawn out.
