JohnL Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 Morning, New user from St Helens, Merseyside - John, 49 Life long reader of books - started with Blyton's Famous Five/Secret Seven (how long ago was that???), I remember a teenage obsession with Sven Hassel, and since then it's been bestseller really, with a leaning to crime fiction and travel, with lots of hobby based reference stuff. Ambition is to get into Stephen King - never read one but picked up two at a comic relief book sale on Fri. Pet hate - TV book programmes and book lists that feature books that no one has heard of, let alone read ! Secret pastime - watching what people are reading on the train. Just finished the Vanished Man, by Deaver Quote
chesilbeach Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 Hello John! My reading started with a Blyton obsession too, but I've never read any Deaver books. I will definitely be reading his Bond book due out later this year though. Quote
lauraloves Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 Hello and Welcome I used to love Enid Blyton books when I was younger too! Quote
Ben Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 Hey and welcome John. I've personally started a quest to get into Stephen King as well; read Duma Key earlier this month and thought it was fantastic. Quote
