I see we have an awful lot of books in common! Nearly half the books you have are on my shelf too.Hope it says something about my good taste or yours?
I see you are trying to get all the Booker winners.I set myself the same task some time ago and only recently managed to get them all.The 1976 winner "Saville" by David Storey was the most elusive but just stumbled across it one day in a used bookshop.
I also see you gave the "The Book Thief" five stars.I have only just read it myself and it is brilliant.
Happy Reading
Pete

I'm enjoying having a browse through your books!We have similiar sized libraries & share 62 books.I see you enjoy Thomas Hardy & Anita Brookner,they're two of my favoutite authors & it's good to see a copy of The Master in there,it must rate in my top ten fiction.I still have rather alot of books to add & it will be interesting to see how our libraries develop.I must read Burning Bright soon & plan to browse through the Manbooker shortlist.Linda Grant is on it this year,I highly recommend her novel, When I Lived in Modern Times which I read a few years ago.
Kind Regards,
antoinetta.
