About meI have a passionate fondness for horror movies, video games, books (duh), and Starburst jelly beans (if only they were sold year round...). When I'm not doing any of the aforementioned activities, I'm usually working at my library (although sometimes I do eat jelly beans while working).
About my libraryNot much to say. I have a pretty eclectic library. I love to read just about anything from comic books to philosophy and everything in between. All the books in my library are books that I own and will someday get around to reading (though that last part could just be wishful thinking). I'm starting to add some books that I read, but don't own (just to keep track), but I'm keeping those titles in a separate collection.

Thanks so much for your note. Please hang onto the one book until the other one arrives. My TBR pile is now a room :)
Thanks for inquiring, though!

Just a brief note to remind you that "Attic" is for me.
Thank you again - you've made my day :)

Isn't "aubergine" a beautiful word? It should be everyone's word for the day!

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. Saw you liked The Wasp Factory, and I thought you might like my novel since it's also about a disturbed adolescent and a bit dark. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like. Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

I just finished A Clockwork Orange recently and many of Alex's words and phrases are stuck in my head. For example, at breakfast I'm thinking of "jammywam and eggiweggs" (excuse the spelling) before going out to meet some "droogies" for lunch and everything is "horrorshow". It is amazing how quickly you get used to Burgess' language and your reading just flows normally. I was very impressed by this book. I see you rated it 4 stars, I'd probably give it 4.5.
You've rated Hater 5 stars - is this book from the 1001 list?
