Me too!

That's great! Are you sure it's just spring your longing for, though? ;)

Absolutely. WHen I buy a book, I look at the cover, I read the back and then I read the first sentences. If they're not good I'll just put the book back on the shelf.

That's great Nick! It really captures the essence of "cat"!:)

I thought about this one too at first, but I don't remember there being any gems - just six different rings.:confused:

Charles de Lint writes really great short stories, and some of them feature the Crow Girls. I haven't read any of those stories myself, but I believe those girls turn themselves into crows and fly. Check out Tapping the Dream Tree!

Hey dude! Took you long enough to get here... ;) Welcome!

:) Yes, it's out in paperback! And it's really good! That list just keeps on growing...

Eh, not really. BUT - we're above zero now. It's actually 5 degrees!! And the snow has finally turned into rain! And the ice covering Gothenburg is finally melting , so I'm rather pleased. Although 10 degrees and sun sounds like heaven!

Haha, thanks, now I know how to interpret any answers I might get :)

I can't just choose one, but the three best ones were: Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell by Susanna Clarke, The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova and The Onion Girl by Charles de Lint. All three of these books mix the real and ordinary with the magically extraordinary. Very recommended reading!

I forgot to say welcome to the forum! It is really cool! And you'll be sure to find people who like C in the R, even if I don't!:)

Sorry, I don't agree at all. I thought the book was endlessly tedious and Holden Caulfield was a whiny jerk.

What is a bit annoying is that D.B. gets alot of credit for being so smart and inventive - like he came up with this idea in the first place!

Ohh, then it might be coming our way soon!! I'm sooooo sick of winter! The only comfort is that the weatherpeople say that as soon as the snow thaws spring will explode. I long for that! Sun! Flowers! :)

YES!!! If I don't get alone-time I become like a smoker desperate for a smoke - irritated, snappish and on edge. If you had to burn a book, which book woudl it be?

Hmm, that's strange. We still have them in our bookstore. I wonder if it's just that our wholesaler had some in stock? We sell alot of those actually! I bought a whole bunch when I lived in UK. They used to be 79 p at W.H.Smith! :) I think it's such a great idea to publish the classics at...

No matter what you think of his books, I think it's safe to say that Mr Brown's popularity is not in proportion to his literary talents. No writer is that good, actually. I agree with those who said that it's good that people start reading. I just hope that they move on to other authors as well...

Tidy, I cleaned it yesterday! But it can get pretty messy too :) What do you prefer - the majestic wildness of the ocean or the calm serenity of a small lake?

I don't want to scare or upset astralKnight or any other man on this forum, but as it turns out, women are individuals with many different thoughts and interest. I know, it sounds crazy, but there you have it! ;)
