Hey, how is everyone?
I thought it's about time I registered and introduced myself. I've been casually browsing this site for the past couple of nights and now I think it's time to say a big hello to everyone.
It seems that there's a great group of people here who love their reading (which is a passion I've had since I was young, and have never really met any other people who have shared this
) And I'm looking forward to possibly getting to know some of you.
About myself. I'm from Tasmania... it's cold here... yes this is where Taz the Tasmanian Devil is from, and no, it is not colder than England here! (and for anyone who is from the mainland, I do not currently have 2 heads and I will neither confirm or deny that I was born with more than 1 single head.)
I love my sport, but I've found that since finishing school there's not been much time for playing it. I like to talk about most sports, except rugby, which for some reason strikes me as dull. I do not know why
.
What sort of books do I like to read? Well, mostly anything, as long as it's fiction. I do find that lately my taste has changed, where as before I enjoyed stories of magic/war & just pure fantasy I now find myself drawn towards more, well boring books. Mystery and Politics based Fiction I find I'm more into now. Just lately with the last couple of books that I've read, they've been European novels that were translated, and I've enjoyed them quite alot, and this is an area I'm interested in finding more information.
I hope I haven't gotten off to a bad start with anyone with this post, I am really just trying to make a good first impression. I'm sounding rather pompus, but this seems to be how I write when I have to much time to think.
Looking forward to being involved with this forum.
Cheers.
Xavier
