Comments on: Disco Boy by Dominic Knight http://bookthingo.com.au/disco-boy-by-dominic-knight/ Reading (mostly) romance books down under Fri, 27 Jan 2012 05:17:17 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Kat http://bookthingo.com.au/disco-boy-by-dominic-knight/#comment-8821 Kat Thu, 14 Oct 2010 11:39:04 +0000 http://bookthingo.com.au/?p=1931#comment-8821 <p>Thanks, Sami! Let me know what you think of Disco Boy---good or bad. I haven't read Nick Earls's work. Is there a particular title you'd recommend starting with? I prefer books with a bit of romance thrown in, even if it's not part of the main plot.</p> Thanks, Sami! Let me know what you think of Disco Boy—good or bad. I haven’t read Nick Earls’s work.

I love Nick Hornby and this sounds like something I'd really love to try, so Knight got an extra sale out of this review, because I'm going off to buy it :). PS this kind of sounds like the stuff Brisbane-based Nick Earls writes. Have you tried him? I'd highly recommend you give him a go; he's one of my favs. Thanks for the review, I hadn’t heard about this book.
