    ... But hugely recommended - The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Muriel Barbery. Best book I have read all year. Read it.

    I am currently reading Jonas Jonasson's The Hundred Year Old Man who Climbed Out of The Window and Disappeared.
    It was recommended to me.
    In the same kind of style as Forrest Hump.
    A nice light and funny read I thought (no dogs :( ) or at least so far!
