nlingwood's Profile

 

About this Member

Although I work in the IT industry, I have a more artsy background, having studied (and still enjoying) history and being a book-worm.

I read a lot, and tend to get drawn into books that I enjoy. The books and films that make most impression on me are those I really love, so my opinions of them tend to be highly enthusiastic. If I'm not so keen on something, I probably wouldn't even try it in the first place! So if I do get round to posting some negative reviews it'll be something I really hate.

Currently reading Love in the time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Rewrites of several old ops in the pipeline.
