The game of thrones, I should like it, it has all the elements of a book that I would love but I can't seen to read them and I have tried on more than one occasion. I think I had managed to struggle my way to book three but Aye! I want to strangle all the characters and the only nice one dies! LOL
Oh good I thought I was the only one who had a problem trying to read these books. I didn't get past the first book.

The old fashioned way was propaganda.

I've spotted The Shadow of the Wind in my library. I already had someone recommend that book to read so I knew that I will eventually read it.

I mostly see film versions of books as separate from the books, like another interpretation of the stories. I have been been persuaded to read the book of film sometimes and yes I'm one of those who had heard of LOTR but never read it until I saw the first movie.

I've been out in a summer dress and T-shirts some days. The street that I live in has all those ornamental cherry trees along both sides of it. I get to see all those pink blooms every day now. There will come a time when those petals shake loose then it'll look like pink snow for a while down the street. Spring and autumn in this street is extremely beautiful. In Autumn I'd be walking down a golden tree lined street.

Where I grew up each school even had their own accent.

I made my own version of margherita pizza. I put some black olives on it too, delicious.

I have to agree about civil partnerships being in existence for gay people because they couldn't get married in the UK. I recalled than many hetrosexual couples who did not want to get married complained that they did not have this option available to them when this started. I have heard in that in France everyone one can chose to marry or a civil partnership regardless of sexual orientation.
I do happen to know someone who'd like to get herself a wife so its possible I would get to attend a gay wedding and get to here "brides you may now kiss".

Hi Angury,
I recall starting with the Witches. My two favourite characters in Discworld are Granny Weatherwax and Sam Vimes. I found the first book, The Colour of Magic hard to keep my interest but enjoyed the rest of the series. When it comes to the Sam Vimes arc there's Guards Guards, Men at Arms, Feet of Clay, Jingo, Fifth Elephant, Night Watch, Thud and Snuff. If you skip one you may miss out on a bit of the Watch's story line. Some of the characters you'll meet are Nobby, Colon, Carrot, Angua, Detritus and Cheery.

I've put a couple of Sherri S Tepper's onto my wishlist.
I've ordered the first McCaffrey dragon book, and the ship one has gone on my wishlist.
McCaffrey also has a Powers That Be (PTB) series, Acorna series as well as the Dragons and the Ships brain/brawn series.

My sprained foot is almost healed. Early spring seems to be here and this week hayfever decided to show up too.
-
Hmm,
I've already read most of those books in the Sci-fi/horror/fantasy bundle and most in the Classic bundle. I'd have to look to the best selling bundle for new reads.

Cool! I'll have to watch that again now that I know its history. My favourite Simpson's retelling is Homer in The Raven.
I just found out that the story was originally written by Richard Matheson.
I loved that Simpson episode too.
-
Is that the original The Ladykillers Kay? Yes Fantastic Mr Fox is great.
I liked both versions of The Ladykillers and Fantastic Mr Fox was great, the cousin was so adorable.

The Green Rider series by Kristen Britain. These are great adventure/fantasy type books with lots of fighting and bad guys and evil creepycrawlys.

It should work through this link Kreader.
Thanks Chrissy

I haven't got a recipe at hand but I do know that if you want them to be very light and fluffy sifting the flour will let air get in which produces a lighter texture.

Only thing I find is if you squirt anything on the tile to leave, it never sits, just runs off, very frustrating.
I've heard that one trick is to use toilet paper to soak up the cleaner and dab it on the grout for a little while where the damp wad will stick on the grout then remove it and scrub.

Hi Bobblybear,
is there any way those of us who aren't on facebook could get another type of link? Only facebook members can read it now. I'm not about to join facebook plus that's not really encouraged due to my sensitive career.

Happy birthday Michelle,
may you have many more no matter how you number them lol.
Good luck with your new home, Lovesreading.
I currently have a sore foot, sprained it but its seems to be getting better. I can walk without limping now but just can't be running all over the place. I'm also changing jobs.
Fantasy novels geared toward adult reading levels?
