Are there any Virginia Woolf lovers preferring her diaries to her fiction?

Although her diaries are lots of fun, I'm afraid I prefer To the Lighthouse and Mrs. Dalloway. I do like the diaries better than Orlando, though.
Have you tried Three Guineas or A Room of One's Own? You may find you have new favorite Woolf.

Orlando made my head hurt.... But definitely Fiction over Diaries.

I think her diaries most comforting. I am always astonished about her openness in regard to herself - and I like her acid-tongued humour. Yes, I read all of her fiction and of course Three Guineas and A Room of One's Own - and enjoyed both very much. Mrs Dalloway is one of my favourite novels.
Have you tried her letters? They are great!

I used to read her books as a teenager...god I sound old! I used to love them but it has been years now..I should read her diaries as you all seem to agree they are worth it. I loved Mrs Dalloway of course, and To The Lighthouse felt like a painting.
