Tell me something about your bookshelves...

My bookshelves are the legacy of a compulsive book-buyer who picks up anything he sees that seems interesting, and too often fails to read all the literature he buys.

Tell me something about one of the books on your shelves...

I found The Stranger at The Strand, when I was on an existentialism kick; it's an old hardcover edition with illustrations at the beginning of each chapter. I read it and loved it, and I have a genuine sentimental attachment to the book itself.

My bookshelves are the legacy of a compulsive book-buyer who picks up anything he sees that seems interesting, -top Louis Vuitton Epi bagsand too often fails to read all the literature he buys.

it does drive me mad when the books change size half way through a series! It seems like a lot of series start small and then gain popularity so the UK publishers change the size to the bigger paperback size! As wall as Blameless, I now have Rivermarked a different size to the other Mercy Thompson books...Grr... :-)
