Books
We love books. Tell us about your favourite books and authors, and why they are so good. And while you're at it - having dined out for years on the time I threw Dan Brown out of a train window - tell us who to avoid.

I don't know why, but in adulthood, I find my brain is just not wired for fiction anymore. I have TV and movies (and latterly games) for fiction.
Yeah, me too. In about the last 15 years I think I've maybe read 20 books, of which maybe 5 were fiction. In the 30 years before that, I read that many every couple of months, of which the proportions were reversed.
Over the same last 15 years, though, I've built a collection of maybe 500 DVDs & BluRays. None of which are porn (not since my gf moved in, anyway. No hardship - what's fast broadband for, eh?).
