Blade Artist - New Irvine Welsh book focusing on Francis Begbie - not his best work, but mildly entertaining nonetheless.
Brookmyre's crime series worth a look too ("Chris" as opposed to "Christopher" denote these books) - While the Parlabane novels are good, it's nice to see some new characters being developed.

Quintin Jardine's 'Skinner' novels, based in Edinburgh/Lothians and well worth reading.

As recommended in today's Guardian:

Otherwise, as you know, I'll always recommend a spot of Wodehouse for light reading.

I didn't know,but that is my fallback on my ebook. (Stiff Upper Lip Jeeves is on R4 iplayer at the moment. I think Briers and Hordern may be the best Jeeves and Wooster).woody wrote:As recommended in today's Guardian:
