BooksWe 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.

Of Human Bondage by Somerset MaughamUnsure of how to explain this book, but the themes of never quite getting over that girl, trying to find joy whilst poor and living in London, and attempting to become a great artist (but not quite having the balls - and too much brains - to be 100% dedicated to one's art) were all themes that I once strongly identified with. The end of the book I identify with now.
I once bought an Ayn Rand book without knowing about who she was. I threw it away after the first chapter.
