Well...what can I begin to say but only the undisputed fact that I love reading beyond the point of loving...More so to be very honest I am also a manic biblophile who absolutely loves collecting books and has got the number now to around 4000 odd books and loving every minute of collecting and reading some more...my world...my books...

    Where would you rate Catch-22 among the books we have in common? Heller, to me, has written a book that is a metaphor for the 20th Century. In an interview, he is asked if WWII was a mistake, and he said, "Oh no. Hitler was a bad man. This was a war that we had to fight. Vietnam on the other hand. . ."

    We have about 70 books in common, but now that I see your shelf, I don't think it means that we share similar taste. I think a lot of our "matches" are probably the classics - it's the crap I read that really defines me.

    Eclectic Book Club Peeps:

    All righty, let's have those nominations for our next big read. What's everyone in the mood for?

    Post your selections in the "Genres" thread and we'll hash it out. If that takes too much energy, I will put all genres nominated in a hat and pick one at random!

    So glad you joined Guilty (Reading) Pleasures! I thought it was about time we had a place to talk about those books we love to hate the fact that we read and own. I think there's always room to expand our lowbrow reading lol.

    Library Goddess says

    Hello, V. I'm truly impressed with all of the books you've read. I'm a rather slow reader, so my dilemma is "So many books...so little time." Everyday I think of a few more books I read in the distant past, so I add them as they come to mind. I've gone through a lot of stages and can't always remember all of the titles. I see that you're currently reading ATLAS SHRUGGED. That's one of my favorites.

    I noticed you have a couple of JOYCE CAROL OATES on your shelf.
    I love her writing! Have you read Belfleur, Black Water, The Falls?
    (I'm not sure about the spelling there, but I'm too lazy to look it up.)

    Garron N says

    Hmmm - 9390 books divided by 365 = 25.7 years non-stop reading, finishing one a day.

    Alternatively make that one book every two days and it is over 51 years.

    Something is not quite right here ;)

    Greetings from South Carolina. I hope everything is well in Mumbai. Your collection is quite different from mine- perhaps I can get some good ideas from you. Take care- Jason
