I would love to read quickly, as I have so much to get through. I think my reading speed is simply average. Approx 1.5 hours for every 100 pages. The speed reading that I had tried to learn up on was Buzan's Speed Reading method, but then I realize that a lot of the speed reading techniques are...

I hope you guys have a very nice one. I'm having Italian for dinner. Sent from my vanity communications device using the Book and Reader mobile app.

"rifle grenades"? Isn't that one confused weapon?

It's Christmas now! Merry merry Christmas!

Wow, well done! But I'm not sure if we'll get into a turf war with the genre-classification! :)

So, anyone splurged here? I got lots of stuff from Amazon, and Comixology (the bastards!). The Goldfinch, Donna Tartt Boy's Life, Robert McCammon Casino Royale, Ian Fleming The Silence of the Lambs, Thomas Harris The Exorcist, William Peter Blatty Dead Until Dark, Charlaine Harris World War Z...

Embarrassed to say I have this trilogy for the looooongest time, but haven't yet got around to it. I really want to, but I have read the first few chapters and it is something that the earlier posters have mentioned - it's not something you dip into now and again. It's a long term relationship...

Very interesting. Are you Malaysian or mat salleh, belial? Sent from my GT-I9300 using Book And Reader mobile app

All ears, Meadow! :)

Ok, I'm going to include a couple of people who have grown up in Malaysia, but migrated there at later stages in their lives, which means their Asian-ness is still intact. :) I've recently read that Yangsze Choo's The Ghost Bride is actually making some waves, so go check it out. The Devil's...

I'm going check that one out. Thanks, ell! Sent from my GT-I9300 using Book And Reader mobile app

Agree from a consumer standpoint, but they will never cannibalize their print business. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Book And Reader mobile app

Yeah man. I know exactly what you mean, was what I felt as well. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Book And Reader mobile app

I am! I am! Is Nathan Fillion coming back as Malcolm? He's a little, uhm, different in size now judging from his recent Castle episodes... :) Edit: Uhm. Comic book form? Hmm... I'm a comics fan, but somehow this isn't the same thing...

Not really, no. Why?

I live in an area where flooding is quite unlikely, so given that I've books that I've owned for more than 20 odd years, it's a little less risky than companies that generally tend not to stay around beyond 10-15 years on average, however successful they are at their peak. Blackberry is a case...

Ok, the idea I had was something akin to You Don't Know Jack, e.g. a little more real-time, quiz-showy type of interaction. I suppose we can do this, but the preparation is pretty colossal, and it's a skype chat! The last time I was in something like this, a gamemaster compiles a list of...

Ok, finished the first book. It was entertaining, but for the entire time I had Battle Royale at the back of my head. BR was more nuanced and had more space for backstories that motivate each character, which I think contributes to the depth. That's not to say The Hunger Games wasn't...

"Bounce?" :)

Gatchaman happens to be one of my favourite cartoon series while I was growing up. I can't wait to catch this! :)
