[...] or two. It sounded, good so I succumbed and ordered the book. The novel sat for several months in my anti-library until it called out to me a few weeks [...]

Thanks for the comments guys.

Almost finished Shantaram, just awesome. I’d recommend it to everyone. The size could be a bit intimidating (900+ pages) but its such a great read you don’t notice. Incredible story.

Sometimes Star you can find good summary notes on the net. Just Google the book title in quotes and then ’summary’ or similar. Should look like this (“4 Hour Work Week” summary). The notes probably wont highlight the key points most relevant to you but it is better than no notes.

Tim that shelf looks awesome. I think I’m going to have to make a bigger shelf soon, my main library is almost full.

I do this too, awesome.

I am in the process of making one of these to put in my room for all the books I haven’t quite gotten around to reading yet.

LOL, i thought anti-library is a person who is against library, stupid me. I rarely read, need to start to improve vocab and word depth. I like reading romantic books like Message in a button and murder mysteries like James Hardley Chase.

Good post, and an interesting idea- might have to steal that one for myself.

Enjoy Shantaram, I read it a couple of years ago, it’s an amazing story. Makes me want to do a trip to India at some stage.

I read everything under the sun, fiction and non-fiction. Unfortunately though, I don’t really learn as much as I should when I’m reading non-fiction as I’m too lazy to ever take notes.

I also read at a ridiculous pace which maybe means I don’t absorb as much as could!!!
