There are times when I am a bit reluctant to post what I'm currently reading, as it is so far removed from sff that I rather feel people are going to be scratching their heads asking "what the heck is that doing here?"
I thought that as well, j.d. - what I have tended to do recently is to post in this thread if it is an SFF book, but haven't bothered if it's not.
However, it's encouraging to read the comments by both knivesout and GOLLUM on the subject - if that's a common reaction, I may post here more often, even if it's not a genre book...
