I think I might get one of the bookmarks. Even though I can't afford it. They're quite pretty.

Da Vinci Code also overrated - Angels And Demons is the way to go, people.

20 million. I've read the start of about 5, right now I'm concentrating on two.

I won't watch the movie yet, I will after tho to see James Marsters in it

TWILIGHT GOD DAMMIT! TOTALLY overrated. (love it though. <3)

Oh don't say that, I'm going reading it soon

Orly? I may have been too quick to judge.

AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA thats awesome!!!! Oh your poor dad!!! Crazy people!

I heard baaaaaaaaaaad things about the movie. But I'll give the book a go. Although not right now, I have a reading list to wade through

Haha she has one book to prove herself to me.... what should I go for?

I knew what you meant though I love Dexter too - well, the show anyway. Haven't read the books yet. Topic: I despise chicklit. Seriously. These books had better be good, I was always under the impression having a Taoiseach father helped her get them printed.

Awwwh I used to read Psychologies. Still have like 40 issues somewhere. =D

Hmm. I've been refusing to read these on the grounds that I'm a blood and murder person like Charm. However, she seems to have disproved our theory, and I think I may have to try these. Hmmm. MOAR reading >_<

Haha no problem and thanks =D

^ What she said. Its not necessary, but its worth it to get to know Rebus. Hes a great character =P

I love challenges in general now haha!

You're a clever one aren't you

I replied in another thread about this.

I don't have one lined up. I dunno what to read next.

Got it finished last night. Brilliant book. Made me cry. Books never do that to me.

I do it too. Was very tempted with the Book Thief coz i wanted to know

I really liked it, I actually started slowing down towards the end I dunno, things just moved a bit slow then I thought, until Part 10.

Book 2 Complete! The Book Thief: (2006) 03/01/09 - 08/01/09 Genre: Fiction Synopsis: 1939. Nazi Germany. The Country is holding its breath. Death has never been busier. Liesel, a nine-year-old girl, is living with a foster family on Himmel Street. Her parents have been taken away to a concentration camp. Liesel steals books. This is her story and the story of the inhabitants of her street when the bombs begin to fall. Short Ramble: This book is a bestseller for a reason. A good reason. The story itself is flawless. The events, the people, the general narration and message. The only tiny flaw perhaps, and the only criticism I’ve seen is regarding the misordering of events chronologically. I choose to overlook that, because everything else about the book makes up for it. Just don’t expect a traditional plot layout, and don’t expect to read climax you didn’t see coming. It is an easy read in once sense, it is only difficult to deal with on a psychological level, because it is incredibly honest. I would recommend it to absolutely everyone. Don’t be discouraged by the harsh nature of the story or conversely deceived by the simple execution – it’s the kind of story everybody should read once, and you won’t find a better storyteller to bring you through it. Rating: 9.5/10 You can find my in-depth ramble here

Reading parties!! Preview parties.. Have a small 'get together' with wine and.... cheese? I don't know, whatever posh people do, and for each party allocate a theme, which allows a set number of people to read an related exerpt or something. Haha.

Yeah. See, now read what I said again: 'Personally, when I find a book I like, given the time, it takes 3-4 days to read. (Around 450-600 pages.) That would be my standard pace, but when I find a book is carefully written I slow down a bit to take in the structuring like Anonymous Poster said, in order to 'savour' the content.' Given that something like Ulysses is implicitly carefully written, I said exactly what you did, if you had bothered to read it/pay attention.
