Guest Inno Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 Well, peeps - what was it? My last book was "Broken Harts: The life & death of Owen Hart" by Martha Hart. I'm kinda "meh" on the whole thing. Obviously it's biased towards her view, being her book and all, but she makes out that she and Owen were saints, and that everyone else was THE SOURCE OF ALL EVIL~~~! The Hart family come in for serious levels of slagging, yet Vince is strangely accussed of all sorts by her, but then seemingly excused, then harangued again. Strange woman. Very hard reading in places, especially the chapter regarding Owen's death itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kanenite Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Kane's Journey Into Darkness when I went to his autograph signing :) I thought it was an autobiography at first but was surprised with the story of his life but it's still an alright book which i'm sure will pick up later.

Guest Root Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 Well, peeps - what was it? My last book was "Broken Harts: The life & death of Owen Hart" by Martha Hart. I'm kinda "meh" on the whole thing. Obviously it's biased towards her view, being her book and all, but she makes out that she and Owen were saints, and that everyone else was THE SOURCE OF ALL EVIL~~~! The Hart family come in for serious levels of slagging, yet Vince is strangely accussed of all sorts by her, but then seemingly excused, then harangued again. Strange woman. Very hard reading in places, especially the chapter regarding Owen's death itself. I agree. It's a very strange book, and ultimately I gave up reading it. Reading Martha slating everybody and making herself and Owen out to be such perfect people just got tedious. I finally jacked it in around the section where Bret first met her after Owen's death, and the first thing on their mind was "neglegance - sue". Or at least that's how it came across. The last book I got was 'If You Could See Me Now' by Cecelia Ahern. It's a good read. A very unconventional love story, more about people learning to love than the actual act of falling in love. The story is interesting, but doesn't quite have the same emotional pay off as Cecelia's first book, 'PS, I Love You'. Still, a worthwhile read.

Guest Alan Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 My last purchase book-wise was The Pythons Autobiography by The Pythons, which as the title suggests is the autobiography of the members of the classic Monty Python. Its funny as you would expect from these guys and they even managed to get the late Graham Chapman involved. Well, it's stuff taken from peices he wrote before he passed on, and stuff taken from his family and partner David Sherlock. I am loving every page, extremely interesting and very funny. Plus it has some great photos and pictures from Terry G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Christof Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Got myself the latest Billingham paperack - Lifeless last week in Tesco for a bargain £3.73! Also pre ordered the next Jasper Fforde paperback, due out late June from Amazon for £3.99. A couple of weeks ago I found a second hand charity book store in Bishops Stortford so stocked up on a few more books for the commute.

Guest Dan Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 I'm not a big book reader, and the books I do read only tend to be wrestling related. However, I'm going away for a couple of weeks and wouldn't mind taking some good non wrestling books away with me, anyone got any ood suggestions. I like fiction type books, kind of like The Lord of the Rings books. Any help would be great? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 the Necroscope series by Brian Lumley. Excellent books about a man who talks to the dead and has to fight Vampires in a cold war setting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jimmy Redman Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 The last book I bought was 'Paroles' by Jacques Prevert over Amazon, but its still in the mail at the moment. Otherwise, it was Mick Foley's and The Hardy Boyz' Autobiographies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like fiction type books, kind of like The Lord of the Rings books. Any help would be great? Terry Brooks's Shannarra (sp?) are pretty popular. However, I can't vouch for the overall quality as I've only listened to the first half of the audio book of the first one. Seems like some good, epic adventure stuff though. Exactly the same goes for Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time stuff. Last books I bought were three WWII ones for my brother's birthday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
