I have been a bookaholic for as long as I can remember. I have books in almost every room of the house and have been known to stay up all hours of the night and call in sick to work just to finish a book.
I am an avid reader of mostly sci-fi, fantasy and horror, but am open to anything that is well written.
I also enjoy mysteries and some romance, particularly if they are dark, complex or take place during a fascinating period in history.
Some of my favorite authors are China Mieville, Peter S. Beagle, Michael Bishop, Patricia McKillip, Robert Charles Wilson, Karin Lowachee, Brian Keene, Tim Lebbon, Simon Clark, Neil Gaiman, Jim Butcher, Octavia Butler, Anne Perry, Elizabeth George, and Thomas H. Cook.
All the books on my Shelfari shelf are books I've read. On my Reading List are books under my bed, on my real shelf, nightstand, in the car, or in my file cabinet at work that I plan to get to in the near future. On my wish list are books recommended by friends here and on various discussion groups.
Many of the books I've read are not "keepers". I trade at two great sites http://www.paperbackswap.com and http://www.bookmooch.com. My nickname at both sites is Gashlycrumb. If you decide to join either site, please say I referred you.
