    Self published?

    I've never brought myself to read lovecraft, but I have a friend who's a huge fan. Grammar's one thing, but editors do lot more than that...they tell you things like "this part has no purpose in the story"

    Star Wars: was The Galactic Empire really that bad?

    despite the movie evidence only thing... it's actually The Old Republic game (specifically the imperial agent storyline) that makes me feel both sides have their good and evil peoples.

    Best Children's Book

    I'm reading the Shadow Children series now...it's enjoyable, not sure if it hits the "best book ever" chord, but it's worth a look.

    Dreams

    Not sure. Read a good book before bed? Then maybe you'll think about the story instead. Try not to think about fears before sleep.

    Star Wars: was The Galactic Empire really that bad?

    Alderaan was a tragedy. The Empire itself...as in the body of general people wasn't evil...but it certainly had some evil people in the ranks. True for any system/beaurocracy.

    Are you B.A.R. addicted?

    I have spurts of addiction. I go for 5 months with nothing...then answer like 50 threads.

    Self published?

    It's very easy to miss mistakes in one's own writing, so having many other people read a work is def a plus. There are quite a few traditionally published works that still slip through with mistakes though. (I agree on getting honest editors...+ the whole hit/miss thing with self-published works.)

    Current Non-Fiction reads

    The most recent Non-fic book I read was called Killing for Sport...about serial killers. It was okay, but I didn't learn anything I didn't already know from other books.

    #1 Ladies Detective Series by Alexander McCall Smith

    I've only read one or two of them, but I've heard the whole series on audio CD. These books are awesome. I actually don't like Smith's other series, but this one is definitely worth diving into.

    Hi' Can anybody recommend any good Thriller/Suspense books?

    Kathy Reichs books are okay. I haven't read them for quite a while....but I like the Bones TV show better.

    Hi' Can anybody recommend any good Thriller/Suspense books?

    I just started getting into Lee Child and David Balducci. I think Balducci has several series and stand alones. I like the King and Maxwell series (TV show too)

    Congrats, now there are a whole slew of books about Sherlock Holmes, written in the same style, but obviously not by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

    Lee Child: Killing Floor

    I just started getting into these books. Got the new one for free from amazon vine. It was pretty good. They're not exactly deep thinkers, but it's fun to see how many fights our hero can get in.
