Hmm. . Why do you write "rubbish"? That´s your own opinion, isn´t it?

Anyway, perhaps you should add some more options. . as "Catfish books" e.i.

perhaps even just gerneral categories like sci/fi, horror, mystery, action/adventure, or romance.

I read mainly sci fi, alot of it being graphic novels (mangas). I also have read most of the short stories and alot of Larry Niven's other writings, im currently plowing through the man kzin wars :) great reading :mrgreen:

From the "What other hobbies do you have?" post it seems like a good portion of catfish owners like sci-fi. I wonder why this is? :)

I like mostly fiction but also educational-type books and a good non-fiction, as well. The book I am reading now is called "The Golden Ratio" and is all about the number phi.

definitely since I never heard of the two non-Potter books either......

Cory, I have a suggestion for you, and it's not an easy read either!
fun though....

Neil Stephenson's Cryptonomycon!

WOOHOOO what a book! :shock:

btw have yet to find a book by him that isn't top-notch; Zodiac, Diamond Age, Snow Crash and The Big U are all great books.
