Genre Book Meme

I often wonder how many people, other than regular commenters, read this thing. Not that it bothers me, I mean I don't attach it to blog rings etc which would boost the profile. But today I was playing around with a google blog search thing and found two blogs that link here neither of whom I think have commented. So hello to Jo and einekleinenichtmusik
