The Anita Blake series by Laureen K. Hamilton are steamy, if you like vampires that is. I started reading it because I like vampire stories and the first 3 or 4 books are actually quite good ones, but after that it is just soft porn (maybe not so soft) with a bit of gore thrown in. :( I...

Absolutely right!

Just a bit of fun. I have noticed that most people have at least one bumper sticker or one of those license plate frames with some kind of message on their car. So I was curious: What does your bumper sticker tells about you? Do you have any? If not, why? I have a sticker with the...

My name is Andreza but my little brother could not say it so he called me Deda. The foxxy was just a joke (like Foxxy Cleopatra) and was not going to stay but my hubby made fun of it, so IT STAYS! :D

very funny... :p :D

err... back to the topic question... When I was a teen I was alone at night reading Anne Rice's "The Witching Hour" and, right at the end of the second book (I think) when things really get scary, lightning strikes across the street and all the lights went out in the house. I almost had a...

It is impossible to choose one book. I have some all time favorites in different genres and even that is always open to change. If one can measure favoritism by number of "re-readings" mine would be "Sense and Sensibility" and "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austin. I am a romantic and I just...

*Lolita - Vladimir Nabokov I didn't particularly like this book but it is a classic and you should read it. Even if it is just so you can have your own opinion. *Veronica Decides to Die - Paulo Coelho Paulo Coelho is the first Brazilian writer in a looooong time to break it big...

humm... interesting... I like fantasy but have never read anything from this guy. Will be looking into it. Thanks for the information. btw, are these books in the "dragons and fairies" category?

Cool! ...but does anyone know when is the last book coming?!?!? :mad: Someone should sue D.K. for leaving us hanging like this... :p :p

I read this book when it first came out. I love vampires stories and thought it would be nice to read a book with a more "realistic" (if that word can even be used here) take on the myth. I enjoyed it for the most part but was a bit disappointed. For me it felt like a book full of potential...

So the guy likes to sign his books in secret... :rolleyes: :D :D

I hope everything goes well and it all work as you expect. All the best for you! :) b.t.w..... you put on the fire with the reincarnation topic but you have not said a word on it :confused: :D Come and talk with us. :D

hehe... I just felt like you were taking a little stab at me :p I enjoy talking about these things but I have learned that when people run out of arguments they start attacking each other, and I run away from that kind of conversation... ;) I have to say I am a bit disappointed with the...

I fail to see where my argument is not holding... Just because it is 2 against 1 does not mean I am wrong. :)

What does opinion have to do with belief?? I do not believe in the "chupa cabras" but, in my opinion, it is a very scary story that works well to stop children wondering far away from the house at night in Brasil. ;) I have opinions about everything. :D I do not believe in everything...

No, the glass either is more full then empty, vice versa or exactly at the middle. All you have to do is measure it. :rolleyes: I don't need to believe anything until I know what is the correct answer. Can you tell me exactly how "not to believe" is a fallacy? That should be interesting...

I read everywhere. When I worked I always read on the bus on my way there and back and at lunch time while I ate. Now I mostly do it on my favorite chair out the back, in bed and in the bathroom... one of the reasons why I do not borrow or lend books... :D

Well... I never asked for proof of anything. The believers are the ones who are always talking about proof and you are the one who brought it up. What I say is: with the facts available to me at this moment I do not believe in anything spiritual. I do not believe in god or santa claus or the...

This is probably cliché but I hated James Joyce's "Ulysses" with a passion. :cool:
