    How much books do you read per year?

    Dito! *waves to Gizmo* But I think reading in English has helped me a lot learning the language. My teacher loves me, at least :p .

    The Big...................

    I never said anything about Sirius. He's not really a possibility here, either, which I'm sure you know, since you must have read book 5. I don't know IF anybody will be sacrificed but I could imagine Dumbledore jumping in or one of the other teachers. Maybe even Snape :confused: . We know...

    The Big...................

    It doesn't take a master mind to figure out it's Harry who's going to live - of course. That's the whole purpose of the book series - the fight against evil. Plus, it's still children's books so why would Jo Rowling kill her hero? She mocks us with remarks but she would never, ever do that...

    @Bernard: I liked Stardust, too. What's the other book you read? Neverwhere? That's what I read and I liked it even more than Stardust!! Anyway, I'm reading Márquez now, but tomorrow, when amazon hopefully delivers my new books, I'll start right into part 2 of the Guardians of Time trilogy by...

    Reading in October

    I'm currently reading "Love in the times of cholera" by Gabriel García Márquez and I plan to catch up a little on my classics. Jane Eyre and some Jane Austen novels are waiting for me. Then, I'll definitely read The Dark by Marianne Curley (because it's part 2 of her Guardians of Time...

    I'm readnig "Love in the time of cholera" now and I'm melting away with every sentence. Such a wonderful way of writing... it's simply beautiful. Which is why I have to go offline now and read some more ;) .

    How much books do you read per year?

    I'd say about 100 :) . Maybe a little more, maybe fewer... I never count them exactly. But I read between 2 and 15 books a month so that sums up! During holidays I usually read more so most of what I read in a year is read during summer vacation. :cool:

    The Named - Marianne Curley was my best read this summer, although I read Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice which was pretty amazing, too! I love the way Jane Austen writes... there's such a lot of beautiful words!

    Laugh Out Loud Funny

    Definitely Lamb: The Gospel according to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal by Christopher Moore. I love this book and couldn't read a single page without laughing out loud. My sister found that so funny to watch that she bought the book, too. Now we're both Moore addicts :p

    has there been any movie that was......

    Actually, this phenomenon has happened to me a lot lately! First, I love Nicholas Sparks adaptations - they're usually better than the books, but I think only because in the movies (A Walk To Remember and The Notebook) they show much more little things than make you love the characters and...
