i'm thirsty for days when i do that my hubby loves Butternut Squash. when he had his wisdom teeth out he ate heaps of it and didnt tire of the taste

ok, i had so many things go with but since my Dad is referred to, it just feels wrong

And voila! You do! The second day you're out joyriding, you get a little thirsty so you decide to stop for a glass of lemonade. Unfortunately, at the very moment you spot a shop to stop at, an eyelash falls into your eye. In your blinking confusion you ram right into my Challenger 2 already...

i love that butterfly one! my hub wants this one for Christmas... guess i better start savin

Perfect mag for the stiletto feminist :) I'd like to check it out. Wonder if any copies could be found on Amazon etc once it gets going?

I definitely vote for Weaveworld - I could stand to read it an 8th time :D, but I could wait til December if I have to. I also vote for Eaters of the Dead

I'm not addicted to books in general, but I have been addicted to certain authors or storylines.

Irene - my niece lives in Nanaimo. And I lived in Parksville for 6 months a few years back. The Island is lovely! My mom's soul calls Victoria home :) Rainbowgurl, I'm sure you're going to love BC. If you can get over the long rainy season, you'll have a fabulous time here!

And it is. And once the scum dries, it flakes off and the wind carries it to the four corners. And as it scatters people breathe it in and allergy sufferers everywhere live in terrible discomfort for another day. i wish i didn't have this damn flu

wow - i'm the first in here, eh? i read The Hellbound Heart yesterday. it isn't one of my favorite Barker novels (novella). i enjoyed it but i was left hungry. i wish Barker would have delved into the characters more. i was a bit confused by Julia's position. Frank thought she had no...

I loved Imajica. The characters and worlds (dimensions) are vivid and powerful (as usual in Barker's novels). I enjoy an author that plays with religion and this novel is full of that. The description of the book in your thread is bang on, Jazzman. The book is almost dizzying with imagery and...

Indeed - but of course that must all be taken with a grain of salt, as it was he (and his ego) that asserted he was such a great mind. Anyway, it's too bad that novel turned you off Smith. I agree with your grandad that many of his books are worth a read, although some parts are a bit like...

Speaking of Charlton Heston - my dad looks JUST like him. Except that my dad has a beard, but other than that, just like him. My dad also looks like the guy from the Players brand rollies packet. Raven might know who I'm talking about ;) ANYWAY, I think adaptations are great when they're done...

Happy Birthday to you Happy Birthday to you Happy Birthday dear WABBIIIIIIIIIIIT Happy Birthday to you! Am I the only one who's gonna sing? ;)

I enjoyed the format of the book. I thought there was enough narrative to tell the story well. And I like being able to deduce plot elements based on things like the clippings - it's somewhat refreshing. But yeah, the movie kicked a$$ ;) I can think of a few novels where the movie...

Cajunmama and Rigana - I was thinking that perhaps Saramago wrote Blindness without punctuation so that the reader also felt a little blind while reading. Do you know what I mean? Your confusion adds to the experience. At least that's what it felt like to me. I just started The Great Gatsby...

i'm with dele - in hallowe'en spirit

thanks Dele, and i'd give ya free tea for hanging out :D

Fahrenheit 451 was also excellent!! I read that recently - that would make my list too!

It is indeed correct that River God (and the entire Egyptian series) is not to be taken as a better example of Smith’s historical fiction novels; however, Taita (the slave) was not a pyramid slave but a house servant. And, as he was a eunuch, didn’t partake in the sexual escapades that his...
