Hi from Australia, where we have to stand on our heads to read a book the right way up
![Laughing :lol:](https://www.booktalk.org/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)
. I'm a voracious reader and been looking for a forum to talk about books and reading (the next best thing to doing it, is talking about it) for a while. It's so nice to find a forum that doesn't lump sci-fi/fantasy into horror or "OTHER" mixed categories. Or have posts with "like wow man, like totally" in them.
I read sci-fi/fantasy, obviously, but also science factual and mystery and humour and biography and general fiction and when I run out of good books/mags I've been known to read cereal packets

just to keep my eyes moving. I'm married to a [shock, horror] non reader (he's dyslexic) but have managed to infect all 4 of my children with the voracious reader bug. Now all I have to do is explain to my 10 year old's teacher that YES she is allowed to read (selected) adult fiction, including Twilight.
Looking forward to discussing books and converting more people into Pratchett fans ('cause there's not enough of us downunder yet).
