I love this forum. My reading has diversified as a result of this place and my TBR has mutated rather hideously (but in a good way)! My posting has been limited and I promise to up my game! What would I like to see changed? Currently nothing but with increased posting habits, maybe I...

This book read like a movie script to me. I didn't mind the story so much but the writing was abhorrent!

I am currently a hostage at a birthday party held at the home of the Vice President of an unnamed South American country. Bel Canto - Ann Patchett

I have it on hold at my library but I'm 5th in queue although there are 10 copies so hopefully it shouldn't be too far away! I wonder if there are any others on here that use the Brisbane City Council Library... (elibcat)

I am a massive Ellroy fan although I think that he is a bit of a nutter! My only complaint is that his later novels are especially thick. Sadly with my reading speed it can take quite some time to get through one of those babies!

I can almost certainly promise you that the size of your "To Be Read" (TBR) pile will increase and that you will discover authors and books that you would never have even heard of. And welcome too!

I have something to add but it pales in comparison. I hope that everyone's stresses relieve and things turn around for all of you that need things to turn around. I have been waking at 5 am every morning and can't go back to sleep. We have a new puppy and I have to let it out every morning...

I worked with a girl whose boyfriend was in a band (small indy band in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia). Both my coworker and her boyfriend are big readers. For their latest album release, they made book marks with a lyric from one of the tracks saying "Midnight creeps, like a strangler...

From the library: Everything Is Illuminated - Jonathan Safran Foer The Time Traveller's Wife - Audrey Niffenegger The Help - Kathryn Stockett All borrowed as a result of recommendations from Book And Reader posters.

The Da Vinci Code... the horror!

Firstly Aqua, great idea! I think that you and I have very similar lists. Due to my slow reading speed, I tend not to read books over about 600 pages, so the Ayn Rand books and a few others are probably out for me! There are quite a few on your TBR list that I've read and many, many more...
