About My Library
At one time I only included books I owned and intended to keep, but I moved house and got rid of a lot of books that I knew I would never read again, so now I have a separate collection for those. I'm still trying to get to grips with what I've got rid of because of course I didn't record it at the time, and some of my books are still in boxes up in the attic.

I finally succumbed to Kindle and have been reading voraciously ever since. Well more so than usual :).

I recently read through the 1001 books to read list again, and decided that there are a lot of books on it that I really don't want to read, but there are also a lot that I probably should/would like, so I have selected 100 books from the list and will be reading them on and off over the next few years.
