    The Little Prince is a wonderful book if you know what a hat doesn't look like.

    "The Da Vinci Code" should be worth -ve points.

    Have started about 25 and finished about 6.

    I've never really been enthused by fiction - probably not imaginative or maybe empathetic enough.

    Alan Curbishley's autobiography however.....

    after 53 pages of the DV Code I gave up .. what a load of old rubbish .. sold trillions though .. does that make it a 'great book'? ... an 'essential read' ? .. does it f***

    (My excuse for only reading 31 is that since discovering Thomas Pynchon, literally nothing else measures up. CL Gravity's Rainbow book club anyone? :D)
