I want to broaden my horizons, so about 45% of this is non-fiction.
But... I plan to read all this... in about three years' time, after I've completed university. I'm so anxious to get my hands on these books that dropping out altogether may be on the cards for the rest of my tenure here!
If I manage to organise my time and actually get around to studying (instead of worrying about studying) I may get around to reading all this... but that I ain't gonna happen... Besides, I don't want to be distracted by my studies when dipping into these beasts.

I really love Bukowski... Both his novels & his poetry. You might also like to read Factotum & Women...
