*holds hand up*

Can I join too? I'm a librarian (unless you're a librarian, in which case I'm technically not), so (oddly) I don't always read as much as I once did. Why? Well, you spend the whole day surrounded by books, so their appeal tends to wane after a while...

Recently read:

American Gods by Neil Gaiman (big thumbs up)
Blott on the Landscape (laughing too much to put thumbs up)
Clarissa by Samuel Richardson (big thumbs down)
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (reasonably-sized thumbs up)

Currently reading:

Tristam Shandy by Lawrence Sterne
Life of Pi by whatsisname

In my to-be-read pile:

far too many books including Dorian, Holes, The God of Small Things, The Blind Assassin, Don Quixote, Jane Eyre and much more

Hi David, I've had Tristam Shandy sitting on my shelf for a few years and have never gotten around to reading it. Is it any good?

I've read the first volume (of nine) so far and it's...different. Very odd, but quite good fun.

I'll add you David. Somewhere around there's a Order of the Phoenix thread...you wouldn't pop some comments in there would you?
