I can understand what you mean! It's weird but I like the way they smell and feel I just like looking at them. When I win the lottery I am going to build a massive library in my house and then I'll just invite people in to read my books without having give them away! I'm more precious about...

I said on the post earlier (where Martin added the link to Book crossing) that i can replace alot of my books because I go to second ahnd bookshops but there are alot of books I own that I could never leave anywhere (for instance my Dylan Thomas poetry book given to me by my ex boyfriend and my...

Noddy woke up feeling VERY excited. The sun was shining, the birds were singing, and his porridge was nice and hot and sugary, and today he was going to see his very very bestest friend- BigEars!!! He got out of bed, stretched his happy little arms and put on his jangly little hat with the...

I read Amercian Gods before i read any of the sandman series. I've got Sandman Endless Nights now (in hardback - absolutely beautiful) and I really liked that but I think I'll have to read alot more before I can compare the writing to American Gods which I really got into. there are also so...

also could you possibly post comments on the book your reading The Woman Who Cut Off Her Leg at the Maidstone Club i noticed it and it looks intriguing (also i looked it up on amazon and they are charging £97.00 pounds! is there any reason for this?)

i've just started Colours Insulting to Nature by Cintra Wilson my mum said it was brilliant and so apparently did Jack Black??!! seems ok so far (going to give The Wind Up Bird Chronicles a rest for a while i fancied something a bit lighter and funny - I'll get back to it soon)

Girlfriend In A Coma I have just finished reading this by Douglas Coupland. It's about the 5th time I've read it in 4 years and although I wouldn't say its his best book its very a very comfortable enjoyable read. Its a reminder of how we live our lives and what we think and how we end up in...

Excellent site thanks :) i'm pretty attatched to my books too and I love owning them but I also go to a lot of second hand bookshops so I know I can pick up stuff I've owned before easily. I never pass on the ones with importance (a dylan thomas poetry book which i will never ever ever get...

My dad gave me Slaughter House 5 to read when I was about 12. I thought it was brilliant and then I read The Sirens of Titan. I haven't read Galapagos yet but its on my list now to be honest I hadn't heard of it. I was on the train one morning and there was a copy of Breakfast of...

Thanks very much. I'll have a look tomorrow!
