That still leaves about 10 gazillion books, many of which are actually worth reading, and many of which you may actually enjoy.
so, I'll read them again, but not right now. Perhaps several years later, as you prompt.

thanks for your reassurance, F-Art, DiapDealer and Richvalle I'll start a brand new "genre" tonight: HOW TO ANALYZE PEOPLE ON SIGHT.




PS: some people will faint if they know I can't read "Oz" books, or Alice in wonderland. there must be a glitch in my little brain.
