diemperdidi Posted December 14, 2010 Posted December 14, 2010 Hello, I'm quite excited about joining a new forum. I'm a student in my 3rd year at Edinburgh University but have taken some time off, and I remembered how being on a book forum when I was younger was quite a comfort in difficult times, so thought I'd join a one again. I love to read, obviously, and write. I study French and English Language and I love language in all its forms. The linguist David Crystal is a bit of a hero. I don't have a favourite book because there are too many, but right now I'm reading Titus Groan by Mervyn Peake (part of the Gormenghast trilogy). I can't wait to get stuck into some exciting literary debate! Quote

Peacefield Posted December 15, 2010 Posted December 15, 2010 Welcome diemperdidi! Glad you joined us. Do you have any fave genres you like to read? Quote
BigWords Posted December 15, 2010 Posted December 15, 2010 Welcome tot he BCF. I love the Gormenghast books. The television adaptation didn't do justice to how strange some of the characters were. Quote
diemperdidi Posted December 17, 2010 Author Posted December 17, 2010 Welcome diemperdidi! Glad you joined us. Do you have any fave genres you like to read? I wouldn't really say I have a favourite genre. I'll read most anything really. I'm not overly fond of crime and horror stuff but I would still read something of those genres if it was recommended. By the way, I love your quote for the week. Say Anything is one of my favourite films. Quote
