  1. Well, my reading speed does not vary, just the hours per day that I spend on it vary
  2. Well it took me around 30 hours to finish the second and the third book of Twilight, so, according to this I never read the first one
  3. I am the only one that feels stupid because it took me far more time to read most of those ?
  4. Yes, there is that, but when most of your life nobody cared about you and your feelings. And yes there is the moment when you trully become an empty shell but still when most of the things you feel are negative, this alternative is not so frightening. I don't say that it is the right thing to do, I just say that I get it! Well, and that sometimes I envy those type of people. They seen less stressed, and given the fact that there are fewer and fewer moments that I feel really happy, you get my point.
  5. Well in my short but still eventful life I have had the chance to feel and not feel a lot for some really close relatives. So I think I can understand the narrator's point of view. I know it sounds crazy a bit, not to love your folks, not to feel anything when you do something horrible, it's cold sociopathy if I am not mistaken, or psychopathy, but yet..... There are some moments a person's life when you have to either pretend to care, or.... well.... For me this book was something that touched me deeply. I sometimes envy people that cannot feel a thing. Can you imagine that? Not to feel all the hurt, all the sorrow, won't it be much better? Especially if you are surrounded with it? I don't know if I was able to make anything clear? It's just a lil to personal and complicated, and maybe somehow twisted just to post it on plain view Don't call the asylum yet, pleaseeeeeeeeee
  6. Well, I love my job, so it's Ok with me. The only one problem is that I don't have so much time to read. Well I have a lot of books I like: Rose Madder - St.King; Anita Blake - Laurell K. Hamilton; Fifty shades ; IT ; K-PAX...... and so on, and so on.
  7. Yes, I am. I have finally found a place where I can discus books, what is not to like Thank you.
  8. Thank you, you have been perfect hosts so far.
  9. Lol, I have one in almost every book I read. Well, almost, since the boys in the book I am currently reading are way under my age lololol One of my biggest crush is Jean-Claude from Laurell K. Hamilton's books: Anita Blake Series
  10. I don't mind reading about interesting new authors. One can always learn something new.
  11. Hi, My name is Marina and I am from Bulgaria. I am a book addict. I love to read. I love romances, crimes, horror, fantasy, Si-Fi. I really, really love to read, but I don't have much time to do so, since I work 7 days per week, 10 hours a day. Most of my friends don't read..... well at all. I am very happy to have found this place, because now I would have people to talk to about my favorite books. Well, that's me.
  12. I may finish it. I liked the idea of the game, so I may endeed finish it. Will share my opinion when I do
  13. I want to become a Vamp, so I would have the time to read all the books I want!

      But you'd have to eat blood instead of food! But yes, there are a lot of good books out there :).

      That's an interesting hypothesis Marmin....would it ever be possible to read every book even if you had unlimited time and lived for ever? Presuming a vampire reads at the same speed as when he/she was human, there would still be more books written everyday than you could possibly read..until all the humans were dead and you could eventually catch up

      Now, now, vodkafan, why did you have to shatter my dreams :(

  14. I'm still reading Richard Wiseman - 59 Seconden (translated into Dutch from 59 Seconds), I should have it finished somewhere today and then I'll pick a fiction read. I'm not sure yet what as there are several books I really want to read (oh the dilemmas..). Ohhh yes, so may books so little time. Thats one of the main reasons I want to become a vampire when I grow up
  15. You may be right. I haven't finished it yet. It's on my "To finish when dont have anything better" list I may move it forward though if you think it's worth it
  16. Unless I know abuot the book is correct. I started watching K-PAX for the fifth time before I saw that there was a book, imagine that hahahahaha But the movies that are better than the book are really reare. I can come up with no more than 3 mayby 5 if I start thinking .
  17. No, I don't think so. This type of reviewing works for me Never wanted to change a review.
  18. Phhh I don't know about the movie-book thing. It's something like "What comes first the egg or the chicken?" I have a problem with seeing the movi first, since if I already know the end I cannot read thhe book
  19. I totaly agree. I am a member of some websites, dediacted to book reviews and what I mainly see is that people does not know that difference. I personaly write me reviews in one, maximum two days after I have read the book, since most of the time I finish my books late at night But yes, the review is something amed at the futuer reader of the book. I see a lot of people that give reviews to books they know they won't like from the begining, which is just mean. In my opinion, the point of the review is that you enjoy the genre, heave read something about the books, decided to read it, BEACAUSE you think you may like it, and based on that and the book itself you write what you think about it. From that point on, I rearly give a grade - 0 or 1, since for me to begin with a book I have to be interested enough in it, which automaticaly takes its grade at 2 as a start.
  20. Well, I tend to read the books first and then watch the movies. It's less anoing afterwards and most of the times when I have read the books first I can explayn to my friend why something is happening in the movie No, I haven't read Divergent yet... it's on my to read list, after all the Maze books I am stubborn that way, will read them all befor the movie is out in Bulgaria Have you read Divergent?
  21. I love this book. I read it while I was in high school and I can almost still quote it by heard. It was an amaing jorney for me. I remember that it took me almost a week to read it. I had to stop and think everything I was reading almost at every page. For me the book gives another perspective that I can undertand. I don't think that I can explain it in a way that some of you will not think that I have to go to asylum. I don't say that I agree that we sould just start killing people around, but yet again, I think that the book is worth reading at least one time
  22. Well, I have started "Ready Player One" by Ernest Clin but it is a lil too Young adult for me. Nevertheless the book loks good. It s consedered to be Dystopia.
  23. Thank you! The book is ok. Not as good as "The Hunger Games" I am in the middle now and if it wasn't for the movie that is going to come out soon, I may have not read it so fast. :)I heard that there are too many differances between the book and the movie, so I want to read the book first.
  24. Hi all, Well since the begining os September I read: Heaven's Sinners (The MC Sinners #2) by Bella Jewel and I am currently reading: The Maze Runner (The Maze Runner #1) by James Dashner
