This is a question Books

We love books. Tell us about your favourite books and authors, and why they are so good. And while you're at it - having dined out for years on the time I threw Dan Brown out of a train window - tell us who to avoid.

It doesn't really matter that I've forgotten the title.
My terrier hated me reading, for some reason it really seemed to piss him off. I could watch TV, poke my stubby fingers ineffectually at the piano or bumble about the net for hours and not so much as a whimper, but pick up a book and he was off into a rage, shaking cuddly toys, pawing at my hands and growling at me.

I was about half way into a novel I'd picked up from the bargain rack at the Esso station and left I'd it on the kitchen table to go out for a few pints.
On my return I discovered that the bugger had utterly torn my book into confetti and left it in a reasonably neat pile on the tabletop.

With a fucking great Mr Whippy curly turd on top.


Now that's criticism.

That was shit.
Now THAT is criticism.

No, it really, is. I judged it based just on the start and end without paying attention to the rest.
