What is this forum's problem? I'm very new here, and regarding responses I've got already, I'm not impressed. If people don't like something, why mock others for doing it, and why was I replied to so nastily? (Peronel). I've never come across anything like it! It's a well known game and is...

Lol, I didn't enjoy the book either, but he asked for an accomplished list, and I think there should be at least one early novel. No early novel can be great, considering the form didn't exist, and they therefore were on there own on how to write one. Of course Defoe when into those things -...

Yes, that's what my instructions said. :) You have to get rid of a character that reaches 0. Do you expect EVERYONE to count to see if someone is eliminated? If they just wait for me to count, they could neg someone who was already supposed to be eliminated. It's easier and neater this way...

I don't understand why you read in this manner. Where is the enjoyment? It depends what you are trying to get out of reading. If you are just trying to read a good story, what's the point in analysing every single word for its connotation?! That level of analysis is pointless, because...

I don't think Charles and Wilkie wrote in a similar manner. If they did, how can I loathe one, and love the other? :p At the time, Wilkie was in a genre of his own, even if they were serialized in Dickens' magazine. The Woman In White wasn't the first mystery novel, I think it was The...

I have bought the following over the past three weeks (* means that I have read it since I bought it) The Dead Secret - Wilkie Collins Basil - Wilkie Collins* No Name - Wilkie Collins Armadale - Wilkie Collins* The Moonstone - Wilkie Collins* Wilkie Collins in Context - Lyn Pykett The...

Hi ya, My name is Nicola, I'm 22 years old, and am an English Literature student. I'm a member of many forums regarding my other interests but the book sub forum in those forums were always inactive (I'm always the only one that posts!). So I decided to take myself to a book forum. :D...
