    Party On The Forum

    Would I need to perform tricks? Muggle, it's tundra. These newbies... :rolleyes: ;)

    Oh, I missed the orgy, er... party I mean. Thanks for thinking of me, Muggle. :D

    Is there anyone who doesn't care about the Dark Tower Series?

    I thought the Dark Tower series was horror. Is it not? Jeez. But no, don't care about fantasy either.

    Kazuo Ishiguro

    Awww, you're nice you are. :D Wow, that was quick. You should be on the telly, you know, offering your version of speed reading. Me too, I think. Only I don't, because I am already slightly upset that I have read three and a half Irving's books and there's only about eight and a half left...

    What books have you read more than once?

    I've read a couple of classics more than once. When I little, I loved Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Greyfriar's Bobby, and read them over and over until I outgrew them (about a year ago :p ). Reread Animal Farm, mainly because it's short, a few times, and Jane Eyre, because I once saw a...

    Kazuo Ishiguro

    Oh, there is. I'm weird and like to know what's going to happen. Familiarity, and all that, stops nasty surprises. Okay I know that's daft... You think TROTD? Only think? Go reread. :D Shade will have, he's read everything. ;)

    Isn't 'pocket the difference' ASDA. Still, even a bookophile such as yourself, would not like to taste books, I shouldn't think. But when Tesco are the only supplier of books, we will... oh stuff that argument. Oh, and ye who is master of facts, how did I guess you'd know the price of...

    Recently Purchased/Borrowed

    I bought mine in Tesco too. Along with some lovely, lovely, non black-clad classics for under £3 each (well surely nobody knows the exact price of these bargain books Tesco sells). It's a crime to purchase books from Tesco though. Of every £8 spent by British shoppers, £1 of it is in Tesco...

    Kazuo Ishiguro

    Sorry Gem, just seen this. Er, no, I didn't finish it yet. But I started it (well, the first page anyway :o ), and I just read your spoiler. :D Have you read any others by Ishiguro, Gem? I think I might leave A Pale View of Hills and plump for An Artist of the Floating World instead. Or...

    I bought that today too. But huh? They don't have black or silver covers. :confused:

    What book are you?

    Oh, but Barbar is an animal, and you're a vet, so it all fits. :D Ha, can't you see why I do psychology. :rolleyes:

    Hmm. Having never read anything by him I can't comment (or I shouldn't, but I will ;) ) but I agree that often imagination outweighs language. E.g. John Irving. Characters need to be expertly created, for that though.

    Why Aqua, you have proper stuff in there. Why on earth would you want to be obsessed with Stephen King? :eek: ;)

    Audrey Niffenegger: The Time Traveler's Wife

    Oh, I thought it was a pageturner. :p No, but the scenes? Yeah, okay, you're right. I could picture the scene where she bumps into him in the library, and of course, he doesn't know her, and so they go for dinner and she fills him in. I could picture the party, when he waits for her in the...

    Where is your favorite place to read?

    The third chapter is always the best.

    Audrey Niffenegger: The Time Traveler's Wife

    Hmm, yeah okay. You could hide the book inside some all-important papers, though, Libre. Any old excuse huh? ;) The beating up the guy was quite unrealistic on both their parts (oh yeah, and travelling in time is normal :rolleyes: ) but yeah, it was Clare's initiation. I disagree that...

    Are you feeling alright, Aqua?

    John Irving

    Thanks Shade. I knew I should have waited, but you know those spoiler tags just have such an attraction. And apologies to anyone who clicks on my spoiler, for the spelling mistake. :eek:

    Aww Gem, you're just the brilliant part. :D And what's this about spamming? Have you been spamming? Can I join in? :D
