I've been reading the CHERUB series by Robert Muchamore.

They are based really for teenagers, but are possibly the most gritty, realistic ones around.

The stories based around a sub-section of British Intelligence for kids in foster care up until the age of 17. They're a bit like the Alex Rider books, but most people who have read them think they are far, far better.

Anyone read any decent books? Or if not. Films?

Right now: Lone Survivor by Marcus Luttrell. The first half about the SEALs training is just intense. Almost can taste the salt water in my mouth.

In the next few weeks: The Chris Farley Show: A Biography in Three Acts by Tom Farley, and Tanner Colby. I love Chris Farley. I can't believe he died to way he did. Will be interesting to read.
