I've lost many of my books in several moves,
but still have a pretty extensive library. (for fantasy literature, anyway) Thare's much I am missing, though. Not enough time.

Late entry here. Sorry
Just like to add my books I read, and get back into my spamming ways.
I recently got into Forgotten Realms. I read Dragonlance, and many other fantasy/adventure. I read some of Kurt Vonnegut, and Douglas Adams. Jack Whyte, Tom Clancy, Dean Koontz, C.S. Lewis. Anyway, the list basically goes on and on. Well, there I go.

I thought about it - but they are so ... real (reality is scaring, why do you think we are running around in here
) and boring

I can't believe you would read Tolkien, it's nothing but dribble.
Why don't you some classics like Poe or Faulkner?
Lord of the Rings? Ewwww.

Georgi, I'm proud of you. You need to break away from the fanasty and sci-fi dribble. And read some good books, something with meaning.

@DP actually I don't read very much fantasy/sci-fi
but I want to read LotR so I'm not one of the people who's going to read it, and I want to see what Salvatore is like because people keep saying how wonderful it is.
So what are
you reading at the moment?
Who, me?!?
