    what do you do?

    Personally, I like not having to wade through 7 pages of posts with threads like this. With the book discussion threads, yes I think there's merit in finding an old thread, but with things like this? I don't personally mind that there's two that were started a year apart.

    Isabel Allende

    Y'know, I think I read Daughter of Fortune in my early-mid teens (probably because Oprah told me too) I think I might have to give it a second look.

    How old is everyone?

    I'm 22. Though appearantly no one knows it, they all think I'm in my late twenties at work. Depite my repeatedly saying how old I am. It's a little amusing actually.

    Jon Fasman: The Geographer's Library

    One thing I did enjoy, was the cops, not the two from Lincoln but the two from Wickenden, the one that was Professor Jadid's nephew and his partner. I loved the way his partner always called Joe "fat person" I don't know why it made me laugh so much but everytime he did it, I giggled.

    Philippa Gregory

    I love her, so far my faves are probably The Other Boelyn Girl and The Queen's Fool. Didn't life the Virgin's Queen as much and actually DISLIKED The Constant Princess. I felt like I speant the first 300 pages waiting for it to get started and the last 150 waiting for it to be over. I felt...

    Jon Fasman: The Geographer's Library

    I'd say it reminded me more of The Historian. Overall it was merely ok. Honestly I rushed through it just to finish it as I tend to do with books I'm not all that into it. I have another book on hold at the library called The Egyptologist. We'll see...
