KEY POINTS:
Broadcaster Mike Hosking is the host of TV One's Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.
The book I love most is ...
It's impossible to have one you love the most. The books I've read this year and loved include Schultz And Peanuts by David Michaelis, Audition by Barbara Walters, and Cultural Amnesia by Clive James - they are all brilliant and insightful looks into people who are brilliant and have made a difference in modern culture.
The book I'm reading now is ...
I'm working my way through Noble Rot by William Echikson, a history of Bordeaux and its wine, and about a third of the way through Working With David by Michael Bassett, the story of the Lange years in power.
The book I'd like to read next is ...
Global Village Idiot by John O'Farrell. I read An Utterly Impartial History of Britain and thought he was standout so bought all his non-fiction, but then got side-tracked so I have at least two of his books to knock off next.
