I ignore recommendations from others. I have my own tastes, and am not really interested in what others like or dislike. I never lack for books to read, and am never concerned that some book that someone would have recommended to me if I had only listened might be the one book that changed my life.

I never discuss books with other people; my reading is something that, while not exactly "private', is something that is entirely and solely mine.

But, then again, I'm kind of odd.
