Even though my 'Currently Reading' thingy up there ↑ somewhere has said 'A Clash of Kings' for a few days, yesterday I had a sudden bout of unfaithfulness the next thing I knew I had (momentarily) cast aside my current read for the evening and settled down with a thinner model. :o I'd been...

Hi everybody, i've not been able to get on here for a few weeks so bear with me as i've finished 5 books in the meantime. First of all was Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad. A real gem of book really living up to its 'classic' status. At only 124 pages long you wonder if the exquisite...

You're Thailand! Calmer and more staunchly independent than almost all those around you, you have a long history of rising above adversity. Recent adversity has led to questions about your sexual promiscuity and the threat of disease, but you still manage to attract a number of tourists and...

Thanks everybody, feel welcome already! With a beer in hand i've had a bit of luck and stumbled upon Joseph Conrad's - Heart of Darkness (Yay!), so that should act as a suitable stopgap until Mr. Postman can 'deliver the goods' so to speak. Magemanda - It's because of the George RR Martin...

Hi all! I've been having a browse around the forum since I found it a couple of weeks back, and it's been great for picking up a few people's recommendations and perspectives on different books. So I thought i'd do the noble thing and register, so here's me introducing myself! I've got a...
