  1. I had to google the word 'busker'. I confess I don't know for sure what you mean! Do you mean a lot of buskers play that Oasis song I mentioned? I don't think I've ever heard it played by a busker. Then again, it's colder over here and so maybe we have fewer buskers over here. Interesting!
  2. It was fun till I noticed my bookcases were mighty dusty and started coughing and decided to give up for the day I'm on sick leave and I'm not feeling too robust so I'll continue some other day.
  3. I think this is a fabulous idea! Great pages you've done already! It really is a lot of money Even though it would go towards a pretty freaking good cause! I know what you mean. I've stopped doing a whole lot of things since I got employed. Now it's a miracle if I get any -real- stuff done at all. However, I think you are doing more than you give yourself credit for. You've started your gratitude journal, and you are playing video games which you love, and you are spending quality time with your partner! You've also managed to read a lot of books this year already! I wish you a very happy reading year in 2018, Nollaig!
  4. Decades later, this is still an amazing song <3
  5. I will be shelving about 30 or so books today, I've kept them in a cardboard box or two for a few months. Poor books! They are books I've bought in the past 3-4 months.
  6. Any favorite characters you have? I'm still on the fence. I liked Richard to begin with but now I find him a bit boring and annoying. Erlich is funny!
  7. I second the motion, a three year slump is enough indeed! Here's to a brilliant reading year in 2018, Andrea!! I hope life's treating you well these days
  8. Happy reading in 2018! I hope everything goes well with your modules, and that they won't keep you from reading some great gems this year!
  9. This morning I was really sad to hear that John Mahoney had died He was a great actor. I loved him in Frasier, and in the movies I've seen him, mainly Dan in Real Life, She's the One, Striking Distance and Barton Fink. Rest in peace
  10. I started watching Silicon Valley this year and I'm now up to season 3. I'm really enjoying it
  11. I'm re-reading Helter Skelter by Vincent Bugliosi with Curt Gentry. It's good but it's such a slow read! It's going to take me ages.
  12. I've watched three movies this year, Police Academy 3: Back in Training, What Women Want and How Do You Know. I hope to see more interesting movies soon!
  13. What are the odds?! We have some sort of psychic connection - or at least very similar tastes - when it comes to this particular challenge! I'm really glad to hear my choice pleaseth you much! I have great expectations for the novel myself and I have a feeling the book will not disappoint. I hope it will be the same for you!
  14. I know but I don't want to leave people hanging when everyone else is picking books left and right! Sorry for being later than what I said I would, but I have a book for you now. Titus Groan by Mervyn Peake! I've started it myself and loved what I read but something came up and I couldn't carry on reading. I hope you will like it very much!
  15. Ah, I see! I'm sorry if you have stated in an earlier post that you'd be reading the books suggested to others yourself, because I then must have missed it! I've had a lot on my plate this past month and I've not been able to spend much time on here and so I've not read each and every post in this thread with total concentration! But I now understand and I am of course comfortable with choosing another book for you. I'm rather busy today but I will choose another book for you tomorrow or Monday at the latest, if that's alright with you?
  16. My suggested challenge reads: willoyd: Dead Wake by Erik Larson - I have this book on my TBR, too, and it's supposed to be good! I hope you will enjoy it Madeleine: Bleak House by Charles Dickens - I hope you will like this one by Dickens! I've not read it myself yet, but I've been wanting to for some time now! chesilbeach: Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides - This is one of my all time favorites. An interesting topic and such a great story. Meaty book! karen.d: Cujo by Stephen King - This one is one of my favorites by King. Very captivating, and scary. Alexi: The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Klay by Michael Chabon - A great story, one that I didn't want to put down! I hope you will enjoy it ' chaliepud: Cannery Row by John Steinbeck - This was a bit of a quirky read, I really liked it! I hope you will too Little Pixie: The Book Thief by Markus Zusak - This is what I would consider a modern classic. It's a great one! More time for reading: East of Eden by John Steinbeck - I have this book on my TBR and I really want to read it soon, too! I hope it's great and that you will like it! I think that's everyone! Let me know if I've forgotten someone! I'm a bit tired at the moment. I'm really getting excited about this! Happy reading everyone!
  17. Thanks Karen! I hope to like it, too! And it might get me to finally read Lord of the Rings, too Haa, I did wonder if you'd choose that one! But I understand your logic. Thanks for Red Dog! It ought to be great! I don't know why I haven't read that book yet! It's such a beautiful book! Thanks! It's mainly because I've had real problems getting into any books in the past few months and I fear that if I start to read a non-fiction book, it just won't stick. I think a book with a plot might have a bigger chance to hold my interest! Also, some of the non-fiction books are the kind that one will enjoy more if they are dipped into every now and then, and not read in one go. Like my copy of Introduction to Psychology! What are the odds! I've just been to see your TBR list and I chose Dead Wake for you! It's because I have a copy of the book as you well know, and I hear it's a great one! I've still to go through the lists of other members taking part in this, I'm getting back to that after I've submitted this post.
  18. My list for the reading challenge can be found through this link. The post is on the first page of my new reading log of 2018. You can choose any of the books, as is the plan of the challenge I just made a separate list for the Finnish books and the foreign ones. I left out any novels that are part of a series, and I also left out a lot of non-fiction. I'll try and post my own suggestions to each one of you in the next few days!
  19. Okay, the reading log's set up now, let the reading begin!

K. Rowling: Harry Potter (series) Markus Zusak: The Book Thief * Steve The Malazan Book of the Fallen - Steven Erikson - my favourite fantasy series. I've banged the drum about it quite enough by now. It's like Marmite. Seven out of the ten books in the series are right at the top of my list: Gardens of the Moon / Deadhouse Gates / Memories of Ice / House of Chains / Midnight Tides / The Bonehunters / Toll the Hounds. The Belgariad - David Eddings - this was the series that introduced me to the fantasy genre. I loved it when I was 14 or 15.
