Cheers from Brazil!
I've been an avid reader since I was a child. As soon as I learned to read it became a habit. The only good one I have, I'm afraid ;-)
My father always encouraged me to read anything that appeals to me and I've taken it veeeery seriously.
I'm not very selective, as you may see through the books I have registered and the rings & rays I have joined. However, there was only one book I couldn't read to the end (I can't name it here because there are children using Bookcrossing.com...). I tend to give the not-so-good-books a chance to surprise me.
As I am currently the only crazy for books in the family (friends are also family!), finding this site was everything I needed.
I'm waiting for:
