Think I'll stick to reading the back of my toiletries.  |
Thank goodness for that, someone else who doesn't like Pratchett - what is it about him that makes people judge you if you don't like his work? Started to read one of his books last year based on recommendations on here but left me completely cold - couldn't finish it.
Also, not that keen on the hottest writer in town - Zadie Smith - couldn't finish her book either.
Love Jane Austen though.
