I haven't posted this before for a couple of reasons: one is that my A+ reviews probably speak for themselves as to what my favourite books are, and two, it's *just too hard*
But my love of list-making trumps all :) I like the top 25 lists @ Two Bibliomaniacs, so I decided to create one of my own, and allow it to change as my tastes do and as the books I read multiply.
