About my libraryPersonal library dominated by classic and current works of science fiction and fantasy (on one hand), and popular non-fiction works of social, behavioral, cognitive, neural and biological science (on the other hand). Plus some mainstream classics, a little bit of current non-genre fiction, and less-tedious portions of my academic library.

Ratings are:
1 = didn't like it (or would not recommend)
2 = thought it was OK -- worth reading, but nothing special
3 = liked it (or would recommended)
4 = liked it a lot (or would recommend highly)
5 = loved it; one of my very favorites

Noticed you liked Clockwork Orange, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it's also about a group of violent kids (and also a bit dark). I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary (and a sample chapter) in case you'd like to read more about the book before you commit:
