Hi,

I love reading books. I mostly read on my to and from work. Since about April 2009 I really started focussing on reading books that are on the 1001 books you must read before you die list. It's a great list and for me it's a way of having more variety in books that I read. Before the list about 90% of the books I read where thrillers, which although nice can get a bit dull on the long run. This doesn't mean that I don't read thrillers any more, I still enjoy a Tess Gerritsen, Henning Mankell, Stieg Larsson, etc a great deal.
