I'm kidding of course, I knew that... but it's true that I have never read a Bond Novel and doubt if I ever will. I would say that of all genre the 'spy' genre I have read the least... and for no good reason I can think of. "Tinker, Tailer, Soldier, Spy" was a GREAT read but I never went much further... a few others and frankly all I can remember, (as of right now), I truly enjoyed. I'd probably really like the Bond Novels.

Other 'reading' facts that prove I'm of the bourgeois, or perhaps not even at that level.

I have read only ONE Sherlock Holmes novel... didn't really like it, but love a 'few' of the movies.

I DID read "War and Peace"... and I don't recall a single thing about it.

Never read "Don Quixote", "The Count Of Monte Cristo", "Catcher In The Rye", but I've read "Green Eggs and Ham" many, many times.
