Ah, the Enid Blyton books bring back a lot of memories from when I was young. I loved them! I inherited my mothers copies of these books and have kept them for all these years. Sadly, I don´t have room for them in my book shelves now, so they are hidden in the cellar.... :-) I see we share 200 books, and although that is not very much, considering the staggering amount of books you have in your library, I was hoping you´d be my LT-friend.

I am a mystery/thriller junkie. I also like westerns by Louis L'Amour and the Sudden series, sci-fi by Asimov and Clarke as well as good fiction and classical literature. About the only books I cannot and will not read are romance novels.

My daughter loves reading too so I am always on the lookout for children's books for her as well. I love the Enid Blyton books.

Some of my favourite authors in the mystery/thriller genre are Alistair Maclean, Agatha Christie, Desmond Bagley, Clive Cussler, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Dorothy Sayers, Jonathan Kellerman, John Sanford, Ed McBain, Jeffrey Deaver, Michael Connelly, Dean Koontz, Stepen King, Martha Grimes. In the classics/literature genre, I like Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Harper Lee, Ernest Hemingway
