good evening from the UK
Posted: Tue Aug 30, 2011 2:52 pm
Hello all
55 year old male (though the user name should have been a bit of a clue) and I live in the UK so am a few hours time difference to most of you on here.
Am a fairly avid reader of an eclectic mix of books, though sci fi has always been my favourite, current top authors for me in that genre are probably Ian Banks and Richard Morgan.
Also read a fair bit of detective fiction, current favourite is probably Donna Leon, which is unusual for me as I don't usually like American authors much, although I believe she now lives in Venice so that may explain it. Though I am sure there are many I would like, I just haven't found them yet.
I have just invested in a kobo (I believe its called the Nook or somesuch over there?)and am gradualy building up a collection on that. The good lady got a kindle at the same time and annoyingly that seems a better one, although being a bloke I will never admit that too her.![Razz :-P](https://www.booktalk.org/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif)
I seem to spend most of my time on here playing some of the thousands of games though so probably wont be posting much. But you never know.
