  1. I also agree with this. My life is pretty damn good. Reading about all the different things just makes you realize whats out there and how lucky you really are.
  2. The book is called The Witch by Mary Ann Mitchell. Here is a link: http://www.amazon.com/Witch-Mary-Ann-Mitchell/dp/1932815813/ref=sr_1_28/104-6991422-6752752?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1192568444&sr=1-28
  3. I don't like audiobooks. I don't think I could ever get into them. There is something about holding a book and reading the words and having the images painted in my head. I love the smell of books, turning the pages. I just love reading. I love books and I would rather read
  4. My last book would be a re-read. I would re-read Tuesdays with Morrie. I have read this book once before and I loved it. It provides a good outlook on life and death. Plus it is short so I could have time to do other things before I died
  5. I watched this film as well. I have never read the book, but the film was very good.
  6. I was looking in the scary section yesterday at Chapters and found some really good ones. There was this one called Witch and I have to admit I am to chicken to read it
  7. LOL I love browsing for random books. I take a good hour going through all the shelves and looking at books. I love discovering new authors and I have found some really good gems. You should try it. Just grab a coffee and explore
  8. I think out of all the characters Tigger was my favorite. He was so happy and full of life
  9. I would have to agree. Those are my two favorites as well
  10. For me I have two bookmarks. My first one has a picture of a wolf in the snow. It is an images of Canada one. I love this one and use it the most. My second one is metal with brown leather. It has the quote "May you live everyday of your life," inscribed on it. The quote is by Jonathan Swift. Sorry to bring this back up. I just thught I would share
  11. You should watch the film. Very good as well.
  12. I dunno, a navy blue suit can look pretty sharp. Just add color to it. Maybe some yellows or layer with a vest of a matching color
  13. William Golding I'm not sure if he could be considered a children's author, but a lot of schools use his texts. Lord of the Flies is an amazing book.
  14. I read this book in the summer and I loved it. He painted such a beautiful picture with words. It is an amazing read. I was lost in this book. It captivated me. He makes you feel as if you are taking the journey with them. It took me two days to read and when it was done I was sad. The ending was good and I am glad he chose to end it the way he did. Very good book and I highly recomend it. I love this author very much.
  15. LOL sounds like you enjoyed the book
  16. I have to admit I am guilty. I judge books by their covers unless it is an author I know. Titles also play a big role for me to
  17. It is a classic saying and it has a good meaning if you apply it to people. However, when it comes to books do you judge? What makes you pick up the book and what makes you want to read it. Everyone has a favorite author and they tend to lean towards their new books just based on name, but I'm talking browsing through aisles of the book stores what makes you pick up the book?
  18. My sister also bought the movie and I watched it and was amazed. My mom used to love these books so much aswell. She used to say they had a good meaning. Has anyone seen the film?
  19. LOL it is ok. I respect everyones opinion. Personally I love the man and I find his books amazing. However, The Chamber was not one of his better books. I feel sorry that that was your taste of him. I would recomend you give him a try. Stories like The Painted House, The Firm, The Summons, The Partner, or even his very first book A Time To Kill will all be very good reads. I would suggest you give him another try. You'll like what you find. He is a true master
