Hi Chrissy and

Hi Biffo and welcome to the forum

I loved the book and think Banville is a brilliant writer. I have a stack of other books of his but haven't gotten around to reading them yet.

Welcome to the forum, Feidhlim! Have you read anything by John Banville?

Welcome Kay! I enjoyed your intro. I'm envious of your puzzle. I love puzzles and have been contemplating getting a huge one (a map of the world) but I don't know where I'd find the time to do it. Yours looks great!

How does your partner feel about your reading?
Kylie replied to SaraPepparkaka's topic in General Book Discussions
Ha, I never posted on this thread before because I didn't have a partner...but now I do He likes reading, but mostly sci-fi. He likes that I read and teases me about alphabetising my books and how neatly I line them up on the shelf (he learnt about that when he knocked some of them askew and saw the horrified look on my face ). I think I've already put the fear of god in him about my books though (unintentionally), because he was a little worried last night that he might have lost one of my books. -
Are you sure you weren't looking at my TBR list? Because that list makes up a good percentage of my entire collection, and unfortunately a lot of my more 'impressive' books are on that TBR pile (or on my wish list). I tend to find that people are impressed by what I read anyway, but that's not difficult to do when you consider that they're people who rarely/never read so anything is likely to impress them

I would never lie about what I've read. I'm proud of what I've read and don't understand why others would lie. They'll get caught out eventually and just look silly!

Welcome to the forum! Ah, Poppy, another Pingu fan! I think he's terrific too

Hi Jewell and welcome! Jane Austen is one of my favourite authors - my favourite of hers is Pride and Prejudice, although I love them all!
) I would be nervous doing that too. I cooked my partner dinner for the first time last night and that was nerve-wracking enough! He seemed to like it though, and he's still alive, so that's something 
Remember to look after yourself!
