I know my reading list is eclectic, but most of the books I have on my bookshelves aren't on this list, like Tanith Lee's "Tales of the Flat Earth", the complete works of Louis L'Amour, tons of mystery and SiFi like Koko, lots of C. J. Cherryh and many more. I also have many of the classics, from Dickens to Patricia Highsmith to Robert E. Howard (of Conan the Cimmerian fame). There are too many more to name so I'm not going to try.
Now just because I'm curious, I tag:

June you will LOVE the hitch-hickers Trilogy (I know it's 5 books but it's a Douglas "TRILOGY")
it does take a little getting used to as well Mr Adams does have a quirky sense of humor - hmm can ya tell i've read all of them, can also recommend all of J.K. Rowling's books as i've got and read all 6.
