I'm London born and bred and I read mainly for pleasure. I'm trying to catch up with reading the so called classics but if it bores me it don't get finished. I've never seen the sense in spending money and wasting space on books I don't intend to read. Maybe there are some who do this but the majority of those I know don't have that sort of need.

I did read the Da Vinci Code - I enjoyed the book and it made me think hard about my take on religion. For that it was worth its weight in gold.
