I was amused - though rather surprised - the other day at work (University Library) to encounter this ...
- "What's this book here, 'Lovecraft'? Is it a rude one?"
- "?! No, it's a book about H. P. Lovecraft, the writer"
- "Writer? Oooh, I thought it was something like The Lovers' Guide!"
Anyway, I'm making a stab at reading The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger just now. It's quite confusing so far, but I think I'm going to enjoy it.

One of my favourite books, despite the fact that I can't stand anything even vaguely historical. I read it a couple of times when it came out and tried to make lots of people who clearly weren't interested read it too.
