Raury 0 Posted June 22, 2002 Share Posted June 22, 2002 Losing my virginity - Richard Branson, great book about an interesting guy Link to post Share on other sites
blinkin'ek 0 Posted June 22, 2002 Share Posted June 22, 2002 The Motley Crue one is good for a laugh. My sister, a big fan, loves the Michael J Fox one. Biographies can often make for a good read. Link to post Share on other sites

akibun 0 Posted June 25, 2002 Share Posted June 25, 2002 I read one called "Beckham" this last week, the Japanese version. Very cool! It's great, and nice fotos of him too. Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 The George W Bush one. Could be explosive. Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 The one that is out? I should be getting that soon, passed on from a friend. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 good. Would hate to be lining George's pockets. Link to post Share on other sites
smostyn 1 Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 I have been reading the George Bush one for a week or so. I never have thought too much of the guy, and after reading a great deal of the book, I still dont. It is an entertaining read though. I found myself saying "you idiot" out loud a few times. I have read a few of the Lance Armstrong biographies. They are a good read. There is one called "its not about the bike" its a good read. Link to post Share on other sites
Mantas 3 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Scar tissue. Anthony Kiedis, the lead singer of the red hot chile peppers. A gritty read about the life of a very talented, successful, hopeless drug addict. Link to post Share on other sites

panhead_pete 27 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Not me - she is a hottie. Now back on topic Hirohito and the Making of Modern Japan by Herbert Bix. Very dry and not all that riveting but a good read for the history aspect and his "real" role in the war, well apparently it is, haven't made it that far yet. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 yeah its interesting but not exactly light reading......the same could be said about Mandela's autobiography and Malcolm X's bio.....that was hard work at times Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 if it's someone you want to know about or events that they were responsible for, then it would be interesting. They judt need some good writers to tell their stories. Link to post Share on other sites
