Ick! I tried frosted wheat once and thought it was disgusting. I usually love sugary cereals because the most unhealthy thing we ever have at my house is cheerios. Frosted flakes....mmmm. The ultimate quesion: pepsi or coke?

I used to view people who liked anime as weirdos...that was before my beloved uncle sent me a dvd of Spirited Away for my birthday. I at first was weirded out because I'd never seen it before, but then I was hooked. I watched Howl's Moving Castle and Princess Mononoke (amazing movie) and was...

Hi Hermione. I think the book most people start with is The Sword of Shannara. That's the only one I've read and it was very good. Then, there are books that come after that such as The Elfstones of Shannara and The Wishsong of Shannara. I think that Terry Brooks is a great author and I've been...

I bought Catch Me if You Can for $1 at the thrift store. They have good finds if you can get through all the trashy romance novels :p

I bought the author's preferred edition of Magician by Raymond E. Feist for my best friend. We're both fantasy geeks and I want to get her into some new books.

Well, maybe not the little green men but I believe that the universe is simply too big for nothing else to exist besides us. After all, it's infinate. Who is your favorite actor/actress? (Sorry if it's already been done. I didn't want to read all 172 pages)

Alrighty, here's the official FrodoLIVES review. I think I was understandably nervous when I came into the theatre and saw hoards of 5-8 year old kids. I was even more nervous when the previews came up. Let's see...what were they? Evan Almighty, Meet the Robinsons, and Teenaje Mutant Ninja...

Did anyone see the Saturday Night Live skit last week where they made fun of this movie. I haven't seen the movie but it made me laugh. They took a movie trailer and inserted their own subtitles. THE JEWS ARE COMING!!! I smell.....BAGELS!!! Hehe...I'm easily amused :D

I liked Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. I'm also going to see Eragon with a group of friends. Sure, the book isn't quality literature, but it was fun. Don't even get me going on the Lord of the Rings movies. Watched them all about 7-8 times now :D I remember seeing Mists of Avalon...

My gift departed yesterday so I suppose it shall arrive in.....around a week. Exciting!

I am in love with the red leather edition of Lord of the Rings. It's basically the only thing on my Christmas list....seing as it's so expensive. It comes in a red slipcase and the book has the design of the doors of Moria on the spine. The whole thing is just beautiful. If I get it I'll post...

I can't think of anything satisfactory to reccommend, but there's a lot of great books on your list. It would never work out for me...I can't have a set schedule for reading. What if you find a book at the bookstore/library that looks really good? Does it go to the bottom of the list or do you...

My sophomore World Literature teacher told us NEVER, NEVER to read the introductions, prologues...etc, until after we had finished the book. Apparently one of her classes was reading a version of one of Shakespeare's plays and the ending was given away. That advice has stayed with me and I...

I looked and couldn't find a thread for this so forgive me if I'm posting a double :) What did you read this month? I read: The Magicians' Guild by Trudi Canavan (A-) The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks (A-) I Am Legend by Richard Matheson (A) Child of the Prophecy by Juliet Marillier (A)...

I have this problem too. I'm only a junior but I'm dreading leaving for college because I'm going to have to leave my "children." As of now I'm developing a complex system of taking a boxful to college and then switching them out when I get the chance to come home. Call me crazy :rolleyes...

They stepped outside into the ruddy glow of dusk, on a rocky bluff high above the river. "We're outside the castle," Ned said. "You are a hard man to fool, Stark," Littlefinger said with a smirk. "Was it the sun that gave it away, or the sky? Follow me. There are niches cut in the rock. Try not...

I recently read I Am Legend for my book club and loved it! This was the first horror novel that I had really read of the genre, other than Stephen King. And I enjoyed Matheson much more. It was the first book that really scared me....usually that only happens with movies. I'm looking for some...

Nice question....awesome. I'm the first to respond. One movie that I thought really would have been better as a book is The Butterfly Effect. I read the novelized version, but it's really not the same as a "true book" if you know what I mean. It had great ideas and it's still one of my favorite...

Is there a date by when we have to say "yay" or "nay." I really want to do this, but I want to make sure I have some $$ to buy a present ;) And I'm new, but don't worry. I can honestly say I'm not someone to skimp on my promises.

Have a good one, Hermione!
