I have several Amazon wishlists, according to genre, and my trusty little notebook. I feel I must add that even when I get a book whose title I didn't get directly from B&R, this forum has helped my tastes in reading change to such a degree that it influences my choices in reading material in...

I am reading The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis. Originally written for children, I'm finding them a really entertaining read. They are about kids (of course), good versus evil, magic, and other worlds. In Lewis's preferred reading order (not the order published): 1. The Magician's...

That list would be quite long. After I joined in 2004, I quit reading all the harlequin-type novels I used to read and really began stretching out into other genres and have never been able to read another on of those again (thank goodness). To name a few of the most memorable: Stanislaw...

I usually have more than one book going at a time, but I find they have to be of very different genres, or I'll begin to favor one and end up never finishing the other. And of course there are books for my courses.

While I'll read anywhere, I most often read in bed at night after all have gone off to sleep, or in my easy chair when I am alone, or nearly alone in the house.

That looks like a great book!!!

Oh, yes, this is my favorite booze, preceeded by a little salt and followed by a slice of lemon. I'll have two, thank you.:D I also like to sip mixed drinks, my faves are Tequila Sunrise (surprised?), Cosmopolitan, Margarita-on-the-rocks-no-salt, and Mojito. As for beer, I prefer darker...

That pretty much sums it up for me as well. During the semester, I wish I could read more than just my texts, but between, I am voracious.

None at the moment, since I just finished up a semester, but I had been reading Precalculus: Graphs and Models, and America : A Narrative HIstory vol. 1 .

I haven't been on this forum in almost a year, but before then I was on daily, somethimes more if a topic was interesting.

I'm between semesters at the moment, so I'm not reading my Intro to Financial Accounting text anymore. But I have just begun Rachel Carson's Silent Spring. I am considering going into environmental engineering, and have heard from several sources that this book basically began the...

Heck yes!!! I avoid buying my texts in the campus bookstore. I bought a book last semester from an online store for $10 that the campus store had for over $100 used :eek: . I believe in supporting my school, but come on, that's just a rip-off.:mad:

As far as this supposed contract goes, it could say you had to stand on your head every other Thursday and twice on Sundays, but if you didn't sign it, it doesn't mean a thing. She probably did spend the money and all that, so if she sends you the £20, and even if she doesn't, you may have to...

While amazon does have used books at really great prices, sometimes as low as $.01, daedalusbooks.com and hamiltonbook.com both have new books at great prices and their shipping costs are per order, not per book.

I will read at any time, but selected late night, since that is when I most often have the opportunity.

The average four-year-old asks over four hundred questions a day. That sounds about right.:rolleyes:

Sometimes I am forced to take a break between books because I am reading them as an author comes out with them, but either way, I read other stuff or else I will OD.

Happy Birthday, my sweet funnybunny!!

hardback or softback novels? whatever I get my hands on Pen or pencil? usually pen, but I love a good dark pencil Paper clip or staple? that depends on how permanently I want the stuff held together Holding a book in hand or laying it on your desktop? holding it Having a stack of books on...

The Fog, by far. The one made in 1980-ish, not the new one. I saw it when I was maybe twelve and to this day I still get the creeps when it is foggy.
