READ HIS LIPS, HE SAID:

Oh, this sounds awesome. I've had this one in the chamber for a few months and I never got around to watching it.

*rimshot*

You said it @avclub-b20754d0f1e8ae843e00a8b39a667112:disqus . This list does slant towards the tastes of a 60 something British dandy.
I thought I was somewhat well-read and I've read less than 10 of these books that I can recall.
