    Books that you wished they made into a movie?

    Sophie's World I read that for AP senior English, and it's the only book that I ever enjoyed reading in high school that was assigned. I think it would be a great book to make into a movie. Great, great book!

    Daylight Savings Time

    Northern Indiana doesn't. I went to USI in Evansville for one semester and my roommate was from way up north in Indiana and she had never even heard of Daylight Savings Time! I'm in Illinois and we have it here.

    Anyone read any good True Crime books lately???

    I'm a fan of Ann Rule's books. Right now I'm reading The Last Victim by Jason Moss with Jeffrey Kottler. It's a different book, when he was 18, Moss wrote to different serial killers (starting with John Wayne Gacy) basically just to get their thought patterns and put it all together for a final...

    Richard Laymon

    Well maybe that's why I have had trouble finding some of his books. Maybe I'll try the local used book store on Tuesday.

    Do you tend to be...

    I can read two books at a time if one is a personal pick and one is an assigned book for school. But if I try and read two books that I pick out I will start to get the characters or plot mixed up.

    Most Haunted

    Actually I kind of like that show :)

    Richard Laymon

    I've only read Blood Games, but I was quite impressed with it. I never thought about why I hadn't read but just one of his books but after I did an internet search and saw the huge number of books he has written I'm quite surprised I've only read just the one. I'll have to make it a point to...

    I just finished reading...

    I just finished reading Ridley Pearson's Beyond Recognition. It was an alright book. It took me a good 150 pages to really get into it and start to read it at a quicker pace, and the ending was somewhat of a disappointment. There was no real "justification" for the crimes that were the focus...

    Life's Final Chapter

    Open caskets are kind of an iffy subject for me. I had a friend who's father shot himself in the head, and they had an open casket (bad, bad, bad idea) and I also had a guy that I graduated high school with die in Fallujah back in November and they had an open casket (full military services...

    your parents birds and the bees talk

    My parents never sat me down and discussed anything with me. Fifth and sixth grade sex education is about as far as I ever went with talking with adults about sex in any form. I do wish that they had talked about it with me more, but I understand that they were uncomfortable about it, I would...

    Life's Final Chapter

    I want to have the traditional funeral and burial. It helps me to be able to go to the cemetery and know that my grandfather (who died unexpectedly of a heart attack when I was 12) is right under the ground. It still gives me the perspective that he's "there" without being there, if that makes...

    New Profile Option

    I'm not too worried about people knowing my name -- hence the reason why I use tarablythe just about everytime I sign up for something (and I can usually get it without getting a bunch of numbers behind it!) It's just my first and middle name, I'm not comfortable with sharing my last name but I...

    do you keep a book list?

    Yeah I know it sounded crazy after I had described it, but it's how I remember things! It helps me to remember the excerpt off the back when I'm in a book store.

    How did you get your love of books?

    My grandmother was a librarian at our local library for a long time, and she passed the reading on to my mom who later passed it on to me. It probably had to do with my other grandmother being a second grade teacher too :)

    right to life - right to die

    I don't want to get into the "morals" of it all. I just don't think that the Congress and our President should be able to play God in this manner. If the husband is this upset about it then he needs to get a court order and divorce her; not stay and fight this if it's just going to be taken this...

    Micheal Jackson ... Gulity Or Not Guilty?

    Guilty, guilty, guilty. I never heard about the 93 incident (I was too young), and he paid out some $20 million and in 94 he paid out another $2 million to another kid. I don't know, to me it just seems to strange and that there's a pattern there. I've been following it on Court TV, they've got...

    Pictures of my library

    That's a really nice room...wish I had one!! But I have already decided that later in life when I get married I'm going to get a house with a room that I can have as a library. I won't settle for a house without a place for me to have a library!!

    Multi messanger

    I use Trillian. It's so handy. I don't have a webcam so I can't help you out there.
