  1. Yeah you should read it, Dan! It's so awesome. I vaguely remember crying more than 5 times throughout the whole book. I'm so emotionally involved in the books I read! Guess that's a good thing. Haha, please don't! Lots of people want to steal him too, but he'll probably just give them his best puppy eyes and they'll just end up falling under his spell.
  2. That's what I thought as well! It must've been really confusing for her. Haha, Am I really that obvious? Yeah, It didn't really affect my opinion about the whole book. Well, it could've been worse, no? Dan, It might actually be my favourite too. It's just a beautiful original story. I wish I could've had more time to read it though, I only read it in 3 days. Ah well. No worries, eh.
  3. The first book I read was My Sister's Keeper a few weeks ago and I felt absolutely in love with her writing. And, like bookworm44, I definitely wanted to start reading more of her books.
  4. The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger My Thoughts: I loved pretty much everything about this book. I loved the plot- a time traveler, Henry, travel's to his wife's past, when she was 6 years old and Henry was 36. Henry just keeps on coming back when Clare, the wife, grows up. They eventually fall in love. It's a beautiful story, really. How Clare always has to wait for him to come back to her and how Henry always has to leave her at some point. Besides the fact that it was a beautiful plot, I really thought it was well thought out. It was very original, and Niffenegger's writing is just brilliant. It's powerful and moving, and I like it, and I also like the way she set it out, with the date and the age of Henry and Clare at the top of each section or chapter or whatever the hell it's called. I think that the ending could've been better though- that's the only thing I don't like about it. It wasn't sudden, it WAS predictable and I just...HATED it. It was so..cliche and...I just didn't like it at all. It could've been better. I still give this a 9.5/10 though. I really recommend this to everyone, it's great, definitely one of the best books I read.
  5. Haha, it's so typical that no-one guessed right. Yes, it WAS fun! Thanks for doing it. :friends: I haven't read Perfect Match yet and would like to put my name in the list, thanks.
  6. OKAY *puts thinking cap on* There's SIX books left to guess from, I think..Am I right? Or am I wrong? So I will once again (last time, I PROMISE!)... Change my guess to... Hmmmmmmmm Nineteen Minutes?
  7. Aahhh.. Hmm. I'm editing my guess to...The Pact! I haven't read that one yet Yeah, Like what everyone says, you're so generous Inver! Thanks for doing this! :)

    I guess it's just a matter of confidence, maybe, ay? Yessums, Fed's winning it in straight sets. Wow. What a great match. I was expecting more from Soderling, really. To make things more interesting maybe but dear.

    Wow til 4 in the morning- that's dedication. Did you stay up in last year's Wimbledon too? Didn't that go til like, 6am in the morning or something? Looks like Fed's gonna win this one in straight sets. Typical. How in the world...Sod just beats everyone up very aggressively but when he comes face to face to the "Greatest of them all" he chokes. What is this!
  10. Baha, of course. ;) It's fine here, I'm just...multi tasking like a maniac right now :lol: I'm reading, chatting, browsing two boards and once, and also watching Tennis Live scores. Betcha can't do that, ay ;) How are things there?

    I usually don't like Fed fans in general, because I find most of them quite...Smug, but: You're the best Fed Fan ever! ANYWAYS. Now it's like, 6-5 Sod Advantage. I honestly don't know who I want to win. I don't like both, but... Fed winning his 14th slam, and seeing his smug expression afterwards makes me feel kinda sick. I guess he kinda DESERVES it, because he's a good player, blehbluh, but could he have done it with Rafa there, fit and healthy?

    Ahh yes fair enough. Right now, Sod had the first two sets vs Gonzo. but gonzo got the third one. Hold gonzo, hold Meanwhile. Rafa has pulled out from Queens. Knee injury. What am I supposed to do with this? What am I supposed to THINK of this? Maybe it is true, what they said. That he'll fade early, just like Borg. That his knees would give out soon. I must have faith for Rafa!
  14. Yes, I think he looks WAAAYYYYYY WAYY WAYY WAYY better with his hair short. With the long hair, he looked like a druggie :S I was actually looking forward to watching that meadow scene, with all the werewolves/"bears" running after Laurent. But it doesn't look like it's gonna be on the movie. :S

    Yes, definitely. Although, I cannot ever imagine Soderling winning something as big as RG. :S

    EVERYONE'S playing so unexpectedly well. and the one we expected to play extremely good is the one who bummed out. Oh well, I shall cross my fingers and hope that Gonzo crushes Sod, then hopefully, it'll be a Gonzo vs Fed final.
  17. It does, everything sounds better in the book. In the movie, with Kristen Stewart's monotone voice, and Robert Pattinson's forced acting, it just sounds so corny.
  18. I've only read one of her books, My Sister's Keeper But I shall put in Handle With Care- I'm really intrigued by it.
  19. Good luck on liking the ending, Gyre. I am now a group of adults, trying to fight off the same clown that was in our hometown, who was killing all these children. I am in Derry, Maine.
  20. I think Edward tells Bella about the ,and his comparison is something to do with a heroin addict. I think I remember him saying "You're exactly my brand of heroin" or something. It's been such a while since I've read the books!

    Ugh, I was hoping on Davydenko to crush Sod like a twig but apparently not! No worries though, Gonzo shall crush him instead.

    Yahuh. Not much right now though...that I know of..

    Tennis

    Ahhh right. I thought he hated him even before then, which would explain why he pissed off Rafa in the first place. I guess those people DO make it fun. I kinda miss Djoker's old imitations, they made me laugh. And his stupid excuses made me laugh too He's an idiot.

    I don't get it, why does Soderling hate Rafa? What, just because he's...better? I don't get it. Did he hate him even before that thing that happened between them in Wimby?
