Currently reading 'The Book of Negroes'
it's a bit dull and rather sub-'Roots' stuff. Before that it was 'The girl who played with fire' which I loved. I've got the last one in the trilogy sitting waiting. I'm also listening to an unabridged version of 'Jane Eyre' on my iPod when I go to the gym.

I had some james bond ones for when I drove to the lake district.

They're excellent for the gym
I wanted to work my way through some of the classics that I've never read and going to the gym is so boring. It's the ideal opportunity to listen and it keeps me on the machines for longer because I usually want to hear the end of the chapter.
