    ok, if you haven't done this already, when you click on "My Shelf" on the right, there will be a list of things related to your books and one of them is "My series(new)" and it is the coolest thing for freaks like us who have to read things in order...

    "I don't know what your childhood was like, but we didn't have much money. We'd go to a movie on a Saturday night, then on Wednesday night my parents would walk us over to the library. It was such a big deal, to go in and get my own book."

    I swear this was not intentional...Samuel West just happens to be a highly praised member of The Royal Shakespeare Company, for his roles as Richard II, and of course...Hamlet.

    "I'm not very good at relaxing. Reading's the main thing. On the bus, on the tube, on the loo. Literally all the time. I mean, I don't think there's a moment of the day when I wouldn't be if I was left alone."~Samuel West
