Do you feel like people judge you based on what book you're reading? Sometimes I read some fairly heavy books - I enjoy Tolstoy and other classics as well as non-fiction about war-torn countries and the Holocaust. But, I also really like a few "fluff" books like the Princess Diaries series...

I'm so glad to see I'm not the only adult who reads teen fiction! I'm 27 and love the Georgia Nicholson series as well as (*cringe*) the Princess Diaries series. If you want to read it, why not? If people ask me why I'm reading those books I just say it's a bit of light reading in between my...

Good question! I'll read any place, any time. I don't really have a ritual exactly! However, I suppose I do have a "most enjoyable" reading ritual. I love to curl up in a big chair with a book, blanket, cup of tea and (preferably) a log in the fireplace! Throw in a late night sky and some rain...

I have a basket with magazines in mine. I also have this bathroom book (yes, says that on the cover!) with very short editions (3 to 10 pages) of major books. Shakespear, Tolstoy, etc. It's pretty good!

I just bought... "King of Torts" by John Grisham "Shake Hands With the Devil" by Romeo Dallaire "The Colour of Law" by Mark Giminez

I do a mix of the library and the book store (usually Chapters, a large Canadian chain). I don't buy books online unless I can't find a specific book in a local store. I also spend a lot of time at the library lately. I'm living temporarily in a city that's a 5-hour plane ride from home, so it...

I tend to get bookmarks as stocking gifts for Christmas! But inevitably they end up lost. I don't fold the pages because I *hate* to ruin my books! I like them to look new and perfect. (Anal, perhaps.) I often use the receipt from the purchase, or I just remember what page I was on. Usually I...

I don't think I have very many compared to a lot of you! Maybe 250 or so? I have almost every Stephen King book written and a few others in the horror genre as well (Koontz, etc). Most of what I read is either dramatic or humourous fiction. Also, I have quite a large collection of travel books...

Hello! After finding this site accidentally (I never knew so many "book nerds" like myself existed out there!) and lurking for the past couple of weeks, I decided to introduce myself. I'm in my late 20s and like books in general! I'm reading My Sister's Keeper right now (love it) and have...
