First book finished for 2006

I just finished Dick Francis' Smokescreen. I wanted brain candy, and that is what I got. It is formulaic and centres around race horses -- both hallmarks of Francis' style. It's also quite dated: the description of the interior of someone's flat had me in stitches! I'm glad that I read it though. It was a relief to read something that was not related to work in any way, and it has started me back on the path to recreational reading.
