I picked up the chocolate book that you mentioned at a garage sale for something like 50 cents, and I was pleasantly surprised at how clever and hilarious the whole thing is. I'm not ashamed to admit that I laughed til I cried through most of it. And about Dickens, I guess his work is an aquired taste like brussels sprouts and liver. Or eel for that matter. I've heard great things about Gaiman, and particularly American Gods; I haven't heard of the other two you mentioned, but that gives me an excuse to go to the local bookseller. Yay!
I'm sure you get this a lot, but I can't help but note that you have exceptional taste.
I actually envy you for living in the UK, one of my favourite places on earth!!!
Well, reading books in the original language is definitely a plus but, to tell you the truth, I read almost always books in English. One thing though I am very happy about: to be able to read Dante in the original language!

Don't worry about feeling inadequate. I don't know diddley! That's why I started the group. I just wanted to find more Asian related fiction. I simply read a book set in Hong Kong and wanted to read more. It's been great having people post their favorite books, so I thought I would throw in some group reads too. People can comment at their pace/and at a level they feel comfortable with. Let me tell you about inadequate! I ran into so many professor's while issuing invites I really felt inadequate! I could just see myself trying to express a thought, and having them correct me. But this is for enjoyment only, to explore new authors, and have fun. Read along with us, or "lurk", and post when YOU like! Have fun!
