Yes, I LOVE books, and have hundreds and hundreds of them. I am reading Lucky by Alice Sebold at the moment.

I'm a bit of a book-worm, myself.
I've just finished reading 'Out' by Natsuo Kirino for the second time.

I used to read books of every genre, but these days I only read fantasy, crime novels and true crime. I have a slight fascination with the concepts of homicide and the supernatural...

I tend to read a lot of crime - real and fictional. I like horror as well, like Dean Koontz and Stephen King. Lucky, which I'm reading at the moment is a bit of a departure for me.

I know this is completely off topic, but how do you you personalise the catchphrase above your amount of stars? I can see you've done it princess 90.

Yes, you do. I've left mine as it is, because I can't think of anything good to put there.

Just finished Phillip Pullmans Dark Materials trilogy (well worth a read) and Ben Eltons Past Mortem (not so good as I guessed the murderer half way through)

Have you read Dead Famous by Ben Elton? It's really good, especially for Big Brother fans!

Oh yeah, that's a sad book, especially because it's a true story. It upset me as well, but at the same time it's slightly uplifting, I think, because it shows how resilient the human nature can be.
