My extremely daggy nightie! ;)

I have about 30-40 books that I have bought in the past, and have yet to read. :o

I love Bill Bryson's travel books. They really are laugh-out-loud funny! :D

Not particularly; only if it's about an author I really like, or some book that I'm curious about.

Hey, you're very ballsy! :D I'm a wuss - I'd say nothing, and slowly edge away. :o :rolleyes:

It also works both ways though. The people I lend to, are also the people that I borrow books from. When I lend someone a book, I don't remind them about it later - usually because I'm also hanging onto a book of theirs. :p As long as I get it back within 6 months, I don't get concerned. :)

:eek: It does, doesn't it?! :eek: I spent a whole heap of money on Ebay, because it just didn't feel like I was really spending. Until, of course, I finally really looked at my credit card. :o :rolleyes:

I've only seen 7 of those. Most of them I've never even heard of. :confused:

I've heard alot of good things about her; she was one of the recommended authors on Chuck Palahniuk's website. Unfortunately, I have yet to find her books in any Sydney bookstore. :mad:

I don't last long, if a book doesn't grab my attention. I don't know if I'd last even 100 pages. I think I can tell pretty quickly if I'd be into something or not. I figure there's too many good books out there waiting to be read, to waste time persevering with something that you don't...

I read The Blind Watchmaker a long time ago, and I remember finding it very interesting. I have The Selfish Gene, but have yet to read it. I've heard Dawkins is very outspoken, and has very strong opinions against the concept of religion, intelligent-design, etc. You can find more info...

Hey, I'm reading that one as well. :D

Hmmm, only with one person I know - I have several books, and one CD that I haven't got back in over a year. :rolleyes: Now, I only really lend to one or two people, and I've always gotten my books back from them. ;)

As often as I can, which isn't as often as I like. :( I do a huge chunk of reading on the weekend (sometimes I don't even get out of my flat :o ), and try to read on weeknights, depending how tired I am. I kinda miss catching the train into work, because I used to be able to get at least...

^ :eek: I loved it! :D
