Thanks. I am about 100 pages from the end of Tess of the D'Urbervilles which I will finish tomorrow and which I hope will have a happier ending as it has been quite sorrowful then I will start it.

I joined the library a few weeks ago, I used to always be a member until I moved here a few years ago. I had forgotten how nice the experience of browsing etc were - picked up a couple of history books aswell whilst I was there.

Libraries are awesome! [But then I'm kind of biased!]

I've finally gotten started on Anna Karenina. I've had it for about a year...

Next up: Titus Groan by Mervyn Peake. My English teacher recommended the Gormenghast trilogy, reckons I'd like it.

I a new russian dwarf hamster today and one of the 1st names I thought of was Anna due to Anna Karenina. I haven't managed to read it all through, that should go on my list also.

There was a big trend with the Gormenghast trilogy a few years back but I never tried.

I really need to make a list as I am reading quite a bit right now being off work and people keep mentioning books that I have wanted to read at various points.

I read that two years ago and thought it was amazing. It's probably one of my favourites. I took me a little while to get into it but once I did I was hooked.

Had a bit of a reading spurt this week.

I finished Tess of the D'Urbervilles - great book but quite sad.

I read Hannibal's Rising, which was ok and an easy read but not exactly gripping as I expected.

I've read Flowers in the Attic, which was recommended on here and now I want to read the next one, I think it is Petals...or something.

Now I am about 1/2 way through a book on Cartimandua, Queen of the Brigantes.

"The Sex Diaries" by Bettina Arndt. I had to get it because I needed a book to complete my 3 for 2 deal and it was pink. It's surprisingly interesting though.
