Have just started reading "I Strahd, the memoirs of a vampire."
Weird book...

I've recently finished the first section and stopped reading Weapons of Choice by John Birmingham.
It's a good book... I just don't have time to read it anymore.

Russell Brand's My Booky Wook

So it's about a giant impregnating transforming blob in Antarctica?

Close. Think The Thing, but told in the same way Cloverfield was, and the Alien part is...well, I haven't figured that part out yet.

I just read Twilight. It was way better than I thought it would be.

Is that the one where Prince Harry travels backwards in time to kick Hitler's arse? And has sex with Paris Hilton?

Is it as good as it sounds?

You are so going on The List.

I thought Twilight was one of the worst books I had ever read. Honestly, it felt like I was reading some crap off of fanfiction.net through the whole book. D:

I rarely read, but the last book I read was... Twilight. Not the best book to leave off on, but before that I read Inkheart, way before it became massively popular. Pretty good, one of the only books I actually enjoyed. Right now, I'm looking for a good book that's not massively popular to teenagers. Really. I'm going to die if the next book I read turns into the next best seller because some fangirl picks it up and shares it with all her friends.

I think I should have just stuck to my crappy outdated encyclopedias. They were far more worth reading than some of the books I see out there now a days.

but my English teacher will eat it up.

Is that what English Teacher do. Most of them hate fantasy. Especially mine. She was always into English Literature.

We had to write a book review for exam. I choose the Dragon and the Phoenix and did it on imagery. lol. I got mark B+ but I was lucky it wasnt her that marked it.

StrikeWitch, your signature is lovely and unique but its seriously far too long. I suggest cutting it down a little.

I'm on the intro of my story. It's like a combination of Alien, The Thing, and Cloverfield.

Go ahead and tell me how bad an idea that sounds, but my English teacher will eat it up.

All those movies are basicly a big combination of each-other.

How can one be a combination of two other movies that didn't exist at the time it was made?

I was expecting this. What I mean is they're all very similar.

There is a device.

"Martyn Pig" which is surprisingly amusing.

Los Soles Truncos by René Marqués.

Mac Sirloin · #**227** 04-07-2009, 05:43 PM

Lamb by Christopher Moore.

Fucking love that book.

Strike Witch · #**228** 04-15-2009, 12:22 AM

Borrowed that Matthew Reilly novel, Six Sacred Stones, from my grandmother (!).

I swear, these plots get more retarded with each book.

Mac Sirloin · #**229** 04-17-2009, 11:37 PM

Reading That Insidious Beast an e-novel-short stroy type thing from something awful. It's really good.

Wings of Fire · #**230** 04-19-2009, 03:36 PM

Bought the first Sandman graphic novel and am reading it as well as Neverwhere.

Also I'm collecting the Yu-Gi-Oh manga at the moment.

I know, buying manga really isn't my thing but I was hooked from reading the scans of the first seven volumes but then they stopped scanning them

I read "Funhouse" by Richard Laymond again.
Crazy, rapist hobos.

AlexFili · #**240** 04-20-2009, 05:46 AM

Twilight is alright as long as you don't set yourself up for a vampire bloodfest.
I've gone back to reading some of my manga, mainly the Blazin Barrels series by Tokyopop. It combines two of my favorite things, Anime characters and Western-themed weaponry, you can thank Revolver Ocelot for that
