A list of books I've read recently with some occasional gibberish thrown in.

1974 -David Peace
This is not for the faint hearted, it is brutal. Little girls have been going missing and some have been found and some have not.
Local crime reporter Eddie Dunford believes these crimes are connected and starts digging, he digs people die. He is soon off side with his employers, his girlfriend and the people he is trying to help. He is especially offside with the Police.
This is very very violent, close to pornographic in its violence, the language is appalling, Eddie is a train wreck but he is driven to solve the mystery and in doing so lots of his life gets destroyed.
Its a good read and was David Peace's first novel and as such is fantastic but I exaggerate not about the content.
