    I read that all in one day a few years ago, it was surprisingly readable.

    Children's book recomendation

    That would've been my suggestion too, absolutely fantastic books. G.P.Taylor is a great author too, his books Shadowmancer and Wormwood are brilliant. :)

    that list is my tbr pile! I don't often have an author I feel compelled to own and read everything they've written, but he's one of the few.

    Current Non-Fiction reads

    I'm reading Margrave of the Marshes, John peels biography/autobiography (he started it, his family finished it!). I also read a lot of books about the Titanic and Jack the Ripper. Morbid fascinations of mine :)

    What do you use as a bookmark?

    Anything I can get my hands on! Usually my bus pass as I always read on the bus! That has resulted in a few incidents where I've not taken my book out.. and had to pay for the bus grr.

    Books you didn't finish

    Indeed, and that just made for stomach churningly irritating lead characters. I'd hate to meet the authors in real life, I fear I'd react badly to them.

    if you go to www . amazon . co . uk they have a 'read inside' option available on this book :)

    Books you didn't finish

    Codex by Lev Grossman and The Rule Of Four by Ian Caldwell and Dustin Thomason. In principle they both sounded fantastic, but by the time I'd struggled halfway through each I relented and read the last chapter just to know what happened and get it over and done with. I really hate not finishing...

    The Da Vinci Code V.S. Angels and Demons

    I think I purposefully chose to ignore that part, Robert Langdon looks nothing like Harrison Ford, not in my head anyway! He doesn't look like any actor/singer/other random famous person named just to help out those with little or no imagination. :)

    The Da Vinci Code V.S. Angels and Demons

    Robert Langdon also looks nothing like Tom Hanks. In any way, but then how I picture him in my wonderfully over active imagination will be entirely different to how anyone else pictured him. And that there is the problem with books made into films. *minor rant*

    Slightly obscure suggestion, and definately won't be to everyone's taste, but I enjoyed a book called Damage Land by Alan Bisset. It's an anthology of modern Scottish gothic fiction. I'm racking my mental library to think of anything else to suggest!!

    The Da Vinci Code V.S. Angels and Demons

    Only, and I mean ONLY, watch the film if you are suffering sever insomnia. My friend insisted we saw it at the cinema. I've still not seen it, I fell asleep about 30 minutes in. Angels and Demons was the better of the twop, however neither were particularly outstanding, and there are far...

    How do you arrange your bookshelves?

    By genre and then author. Although only a very small fraction of my books are on shelves, the ones I've yet to read generally, most are organised into several plastic storage boxes under my bed, and in piles around my room. I also have overflow bookshelves in the office!

    Do you like to read with background noise, or need complete silence?

    It depends what I'm reading, some books I'd prefer total silence (although I have become quite skilled in blocking out all background noise when I'm reading), but others I find that the right music can add to the experience. But then, I am someone who is almost as passionate about music as I am...
