Read the book about the New York Cosmos "Once in a Lifetime" over Christmas. Reasonably enjoyable, particularly in setting in context why the Yanks don't get soccer (and continue not to get it) but were absolutely captivated by Pele.
Currently going through Jimmy Burns Barca, (which I am enjoying immensely, but more from a historical and political sense and his writing style can be hard going) and have McGraths book, Brilliant Orange, Calcio, Morbo and the Behind the European Curtain one still to go.
Of the others I've read, Castel del Sangro and A Season with Verona were both good reads, Forza Italia was just about bearable.
