Pop Princess, Rachel Cohn - Bored. A pre-teen book that is slightly interesting. 2. Prep, Curtis Sittenfeld - Wow! Great book and a must read! 3. Nothing can keep us together, von Ziegesar - Wow! I love this series!

Thilian Rank : 27	Posted : 1 month, 3 weeks ago at Mar 20 2:15 - The Catcher in the Rye was my last. I sympathized with it. It kills me to read so many books that copy Salinger's writing way, way too precisely. They steal the style but lack the heart. I'm planning on knocking out an acount of a Jewish boy's about his experiences during the holocaust. The AB teacher lent it to me. I'm also going out of my way to read Of Mice and Men before I watch a movie version of it in class when spring break ends. Our English department sucks considerable so. We watch a movie adaptation of a book, do assignments on that, and then a year or two down the line we get to actually read the book. How good your class is ends up depending on whether your teacher is a tight interpretation-killer or a fellow lover of the literature. I read The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail on my own time last semester - I didn't want to juggle reading the years' worth of books in addition to defending my interpretations against the two English broads I've been assigned to for the year. When using points from the book in a conversation, one of these teachers slammed me with, "But you see, my little one - Thoreau conforms before long. Conformity is both a lack of art and an art itself. That is the unnegotiable reason for the play's existence. Why, interpreting the literature is exactly the type of silly thing David Henry would do!" I'd take Microsoft Bob over this kind of thing anyday.

Ashurii Kisate Rank : 329	Posted : 1 month, 3 weeks ago at Mar 20 8:42 - The book im currently reading is Pendragon Book 8, the Quillan Games. Pendragon does ANYTHING but bore me to death. D.J. Machale is one of the best authors i have ever had the pleasure of finding.
Phil Rank : 23	Posted : 1 month, 3 weeks ago at Mar 20 14:05 - Good question. Last three would be Don't Cry for Me Aberystwyth (Malcolm Pryce), and probably a couple of Discworld books since I'm working my way through the series again at the moment. Since I've read the Discworld ones before, and the Aber one is part of a series that I've been reading as they come out, it's no surprise that I like them all - although it would be fair to say the Discworld series does vary in quality from book to book!
Ashurii Kisate Rank : 329	Posted : 1 month, 3 weeks ago at Mar 20 14:06 - another good book is Forever by Judy Blume. i cannot count how many times i have reread that book in this year alone, and the year just started.
Azathoth Rank : 189	Posted : 1 month, 2 weeks ago at Mar 23 10:23 - 1. DVD Delierium 3 - great book of weird movies available on DVD 2. Warped Passages by Lisa Randall - good physics book on hidden dimensions. 3. Criminal Macabre by Steve Niles- not the graphic novels, it's the complete collection of novels he wrote.
Depressed Tenshi Rank : 10210	Posted : 1 month, 2 weeks ago at Mar 23 10:24 - TWILIGHT SERIES BY STEPHANIE MEYER!!!!!!

Ashurii Kisate Rank : 329	Posted : 1 month, 2 weeks ago at Mar 25 14:14 - The Vampire Lestat was a good book.
Wolf-Paw Rank : 107	Posted : 1 month, 2 weeks ago at Mar 25 14:30 - I Haven't read in a while.... I haven't had the time with the overload of essays, projects, tests and quizzes expected to be done within a days notice...
Scott Rank : 80	Posted : 1 month, 2 weeks ago at Mar 26 8:57 - The last three books I read were: "The Invention of Hugo Cabret" by Brian Selznick "The Crash of Hennington" by Patrick Ness "Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom" by Cory Doctorow I have reviewed all three here on the site. "Hugo Cabret" was most excellent. It may well become a classic over time. A great book for any age. "The Crash ..." was a very good book. A lot of characters to keep track of, and a lot of intrigue with politics, big business, family issues, relationships, sex, drugs, and religion. "Down and Out ..." I had heard quite a few good things about. It seems to have a cult like following. It was entertaining, but a bit of a let down.
Midnight VIP Rank : 14	Posted : 1 month, 2 weeks ago at Mar 28 4:38 - Ask & It Is Given - Esther and Jerry Hicks Johnny Depp the Illustrated Biography - Nick Johnstone Beyond Fear - Dorothy Rowe The Depp biography I could have gone without reading, just looked at the photographs all day... I thought the other two were great though

Ashurii Kisate Rank : 329	Posted : 4 weeks, 1 day ago at Apr 12 12:35 - hmm... If I Tell You I Love You I'd Have to Kill You was a good book
Deleted Rank : 18	Posted : 4 weeks, 1 day ago at Apr 12 12:56 - I'm reading The series of Unfortune events books!
DefenderOfKnowledge Rank : 137	Posted : 4 weeks, 1 day ago at Apr 12 13:31 - That's a good series. I finished reading "Monster", "I am legend", and um....."Beginner's guide to programming."
silent killer Rank : 214	Posted : 4 weeks, 1 day ago at Apr 12 15:18 - the last three real books I read were: The Twelve Kingdoms: Sea of Shadow - better the second time around since I wasn't passing out from exhaustion and lack of sleep. Zombie Survival Guide - helpful if you live near an armory, or weapons dealer. Otherwise you're on your own. Not helpful at all. The Dissociation of Suzumiya Haruhi - left me wanting to read the next book. Stupid bastard capitalist japanese authors. Ah, well it's the way they make money
Dionysian Child Rank : 153	Posted : 4 weeks ago at Apr 13 14:37 - 'THE CASTLE'- FRANZ KAFKA. Took a lot of effort to get through and he died before he completed it, so nothing is resolved. But I think that is rather in keeping with its ironic endless rants on life and perception. 'THE WILD SHEEP CHASE' -HARUKI MURAKAMI. Not as good as 'Kafka on the Shore' but still fantastic descriptions and crazy philosophy thrown admist the monotomy of everyday life. 'PETER PAN'- J. M. BARRIE. Just lovely. Quirky and imaginative in it's writing. I wish I had read it as a child.
#1 PRINCESS ALIVE Rank : 7075	Posted : 1 week, 2 days ago at May 2 11:47 - 1)DARKNESS {LEFT ME COMPLETELY AMAZED} 2)THE LAKE HOUSE {COMPLETELY AMAZING YOU SHOULD READ IT} 3)THE TROUBLE WITH ANGELS {TOO LOVEY DOVEY FOR ME}

chibiyusa Rank : 48	Posted : 6 days, 8 hours ago at May 5 21:06 - 1. Next, Michael Crichton Wasn't too impressed with it but Crichton's rarely a boring read. 2. Dirty White Boys, Stephen Hunter I decided to read it because the author visited our school and I thought it was a pretty fun engaging read. 3. Caves of Steel, Isaac Asimov I finally decided to get around to reading all those sci-fi books. And Asimov is always good fun.
