Kell Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Ooh, I've just been lent the Kite Runner by someone at work. What was it that you loved about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KW Posted September 22, 2006 Author Share Posted September 22, 2006 Drama. Exotic locale. Intense situations. Deeply woven characters. And all of this simply builds and builds in this war torn part of the world in such a way that your eyes are opened and you are unable to stop visualizing and thinking about these characters and their lives. I was so relieved to find out that they are going to make a movie out of it. I can't wait to see it! Hope you enjoy it. Tell me your feelings on it when you're finished.

Janet Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I was so relieved to find out that they are going to make a movie out of it. I can't wait to see it! They are?! That's excellent news (providing they don't ruin it!) - it's one of my favourite books so far this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KW Posted October 4, 2006 Author Share Posted October 4, 2006 Now I'm reading Wild Roses...trying NOT to yawn through this one...sheesh, my luck these days... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Hmm.. you're not doing very well with the books you pick up at the moment, are you? What are you looking for at the moment.. exciting plot, deep characters, great location...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KW Posted October 5, 2006 Author Share Posted October 5, 2006 All of the above?????? LOL. I dunno. It's driving me crazy. Writing has made me this monster with a lense so tight, if I don't like what I focus on, I'm searching the horizon for another piece.

KW Posted October 6, 2006 Author Share Posted October 6, 2006 I've done some MAJOR skimming thru Wild Roses -- an awful lot of nothing IMO -- and am gleaning a wee bit of enjoyment for the purchase. Can't wait until The Emporer's Children arrives. That, will hopefully save me from this reading slump! GGRRRrrr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
