The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid - by Bill Bryson

I always enjoy Bryson's writing and this book is no exception. It is effectively an autobiography of his first 10 years, but also paints a vivid picture of the US in the 1950s. There are numerous little-known facts and humorous observations. An easy read, which suited my mood.

Hopefully I will be able to attend a talk by the author in December and will be able to get my copy signed.
