About meThat's my baby in the picture. I'm thinking he's probably the reason the number of books I read every year decreases. But he's well worth it. Or it could be my band, my job, D&D, WoW, or even sites like this (should just call it nerd-crack-com).
Been reading mostly fantasy and sci-fi (and some horror) for about 30 years now. Have done some regular fiction and non-fiction and just got into graphic novels about 8 years ago (although I read comics on and off all my life).
I tend to like dark/gritty fantasy and sci-fi (Mieville, Moorcock, Martin etc...). I really like monsters and magic a lot but not necessarily to the extent you find them in D&D Novels. I don't like really hard sci-fi and have been getting into historical fiction a lot more (mostly Cornwell) recently.
About my libraryI do a lot of books on audio and I also get graphic novels from the library and don't own the actual book so I'm not sure how that will affect my recommendations. Maybe I'll add them in but tag them as "not owned" or something similar.
I think I have between 1500 and 2000 books laying around here but have read less than 25% of them.
At the moment my reviews are just a short sentence or two that I kept in my original database. As I finish books in the future I hope to add something more like a real review.

I've got a young son too and can relate to your reduced reading time, but yes certainly worth it.
