I'm really eager to read it! I'm desperate to finish "Norhtanger Abbey" so that I can, and obviously so that I can find out what happens.

Did that last year for English. Fairly good, nothing revelatory in my opinion. I think I'm desensitised though, if you know the story then it doesn't really add too much to your understanding.
My sister's just handed me a pile of books, from mum probably. Three more on the 'to-read' list.
It's quite short - or seems it at least.
What's on the list now?

Well I didn't want to say anything...
New books: "Birdsong" by Sebastian Faulks, "The Time Traveller's Wife" by Audrey Niffenegger and "Year of Wonders" by Geraldine Brooks.
The list already includes: Cat's Eye, Don Quixote, The Republic, This Is Your Life and the various books you keep suggesting.
I don't read fast enough.

*speechless*
Quote: zooo @ June 24 2008, 6:51 PM BSTMy third favourite book!
Just makes me think of Birds of a Feather.

I can summarise Don Quixote in about 5 sentences. In Spanish and English.

I got a super-secret pre-release book yesterday, wot I can't talk about. But it's very funny.

Part of me wants you to summarise it so, it's been fairly dull so far.
