Bookmarked
I can't resist wandering into bookshops and looking around for hours. I used to haunt libraries. I love books about all sorts, I don't think I'm too fussy. Right now I'm challenging myself to read all the unread books on my shelves, because I have a weakness for buying more books than I can read.
