    How big is yours?

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

    Hilarious Reads

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

    Do you seek out or pay attention to book news?

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

    Deviant Behaviour

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

    Lending books... and getting them back

    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. :)

    How much do you spend on books annually?

    :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:

    The Top 100 Movies Of All Time Based On Critics' Polls

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

    I just finished reading...

    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:

    How long before you give up on a book??

    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...

    Richard Dawkins

    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...

    Lending books... and getting them back

    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. ;)

    How often do you read?

    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...

    What's your occupation?

    I'm an accountant. :rolleyes: I hate it. It's boring! :( But I dunno how to get out of it, and into something else. :rolleyes:

    What actors do you think are any good?

    I agree. I think she's been forgetable in most of her other roles, but she was fantastic in Unfaithful.

    Law and Order (Classic, SVU, CI, and TbJ)

    Thanks! :D I don't think I've read a negative review about this book, plus I wanted to get more into the fantasy genre. I'll post what I think, once I've read it. :D

    What are you listening to Right now?

    I love that album - especially Running Up That Hill, and Under Ice. Listening to Kate Bush - The Red Shoes.

    John Grisham: The Last Juror

    :eek: You might want to put spoiler tags on that little bit of info there. :eek: (ie. [spoiler ]text[/spoiler ] without the spaces.) And yes, I think that is the reason that it is called The Last Juror - because the story really seemed to revolve more around her friendship with the reporter...
