Read: 20
Want to read: 15
Partly read: 0
Hated: 2 (HP is a love/hate thing with me ;))
Loved: 12

I'm quite picky about my books, so most of ones I have read, I love because they are the sort of things I like. A lot on that list are not to my taste, hence the low number. Oh, for some Agatha Christie's or more period romance. :D

Whoa, lots of people here liked Animal Farm! Judging by the reaction at my school I thought I was the only one.

I think I found it more sad and disturbing than anything else. I think the title made me think it was something... different. I read it a long time ago when I judged a book by it's cover and as I liked animal stories back then.... it probably disturbed me more than it would do if I read it now, as I know what it's about.
