I had to work on Christmas. It didn't bother me, though, as I was paid double time and I don't really celebrate the holiday, anyway. I hope everyone who does enjoyed their Christmas. :)

Lord Byron's Novel: The Evening Land by John Crowley :stars5: Wonderful read! I could almost believe it was true.

The absence of things. ;)

Observe-but no! Lord Byron's Novel: The Evening Land by John Crowley

I am now reconsidering my opinion of Twilight. :whistling:

Perhaps. Maybe we are born to learn and find the answers to these questions...eventually. Evolution is a long process. Does it have an endpoint? Maybe. Maybe not. If it does, human beings are certainly not it, in my opinion. I could be wrong. Time will tell.

Jack of Kinrowan by Charles De Lint :stars4: The first story was much better than the second.

Darkfall by Dean Koontz :stars4: It could have been better. Too many loose ends not tied up. A page turner, nevertheless.

Here is what I didn't finish: Lord Jim by Joseph Conrad I was bored to tears, so I had to put it down. So much melodrama, and yet evoked zero emotions in me. :stars1: for the first 100 pages that I actually read. :whistling: Maybe I will try it again some day.

I copy and pasted this idea from another forum, and the person there got it from Facebook, I believe, so this is not my idea. But it's fun! Using only titles of books that you have read, or at least are in your TBR pile, answer the following: Describe yourself: One Flew Over the...

I can't really pick a favorite. I love Another Roadside Attraction, Jitterbug Perfume, Still Life With Woodpecker, and Skinny Legs and All. Those four stand out from the others for me.

True enough.

Hi joderu, I will post my thoughts in a few days, when I have some free time. I have been working almost every day lately, but I have three days off coming up very soon. :D
