Would recommend Paula Radcliffe's autobiography - never really been interested in reading an autobiography but I couldn't put it down and read it in one sitting. I just wish I was as determined and focused as she is!

Also just finished the Dave Pelzer books - A Child Called It, The Lost Boy & A Man Named Dave. He was very badly abused by his Mother and the series is about his struggle to survive, and once he had been rescused, to adapt to normal life. Very good, but quite disturbing at times - but only because its fact not fiction.
