Looking through all these photos I'm delighted in a truly warm and fuzzy way to see how many books many of you lot share with me. Or vice versa. (And not just the obvious ones, either). Or something like that :-)

I loved seeing everyone's collection, books are beautiful, cozy, intimate. You can definitely get a sense of who a person is from what they have on their shelves. you are all a bunch of smarty-pantses. :shock:

Pappa had me at "The Book of Welsh Pirates & Bucaneers"
"The fact is that far more crime and child abuse has been committed by zealots in the name of God, Jesus and Mohammed than has ever been committed in the name of Satan. Many people don't like that statement but few can argue with it."
