Night Song Of The Last Tram by Robert Douglas
from Sheena M: Sheenies wee Place (sheenie) on Wed 11/11/09 22:13

Has anyone read this? It had me laughing out loud so many times, good job I wasn't reading it on the train or bus.

It's in the Glasga Twang, but so easy to read that you actually hear the words as you read.

Just thought I'd put a wee recommendation forward to all readers.

I haven't read that, but will check it out. Another Good book, that I have not finished yet is "Wicked". it's about how the wicked witch of the west became a bad girl.

Jo, if you like the book you have to go see the stage play if you get a chance, it's brilliant! We went to see it in London when we were home in the summer and it was great. My 17 year old daughter loved it, but so did my 9 year old son.
