Me too!

8 I've read, three I have (but can never seem to get around to reading... must be spending too much time with me records!), a couple i'm sure we were made to read at school, but I've suppressed those memories... or my mind switched off, and a couple I just got bored with, and gave up on:

(Bleak house is tedious... and looooooooooong).

Catcher in the Rye is the most over-rated book in history... I read that slim tome in a couple of days, and thought: "Is that it?!!" ..."What's all the fuss about?"

I laughed to see fifty shades of grey there... the only one that's on there for all the wrong reasons! :laugh:

(I see that in every charity shop now... and you can't tell me it was an unwanted gift... because I see all the sequels in the same kind of quantities too!... all in "well read" condition)
