    bye bye, freedom!

    Wasn't that just GREAT? First Nistelrooy, then Rooney... way to go! That was really more than what I expected. :) Hope they keep on winning this way. By the way congratulations on the wedding. May you live happily ever after!

    coffee

    I would like some newly baked doughnuts and a cup of cappuccino (made of milk not water), please. Gizmo, I’ve tried milk with Coca Cola, in my native country we had to drink it not only for breakfast but also before going to bed. And when we were out of Coca Cola, they replaced it with...

    Booker Prize

    I think "Vernon God Little" was an OK-read, I would never recommend it to anyone though. Some parts were good, as an other member pointed out, while others were b-o-r-i-n-g. I've read "Brick Lane" too, didn't like it much either. Tried a few pages of "Notes on a scandal" by Heller, but gave up.

    Vikram Seth: A Suitable Boy

    I read this novel a few years back, and I LOVED it! It is definitely one of my all time favourites.

    Cold Mountain

    I actually enjoyed reading ”Cold Mountain” ; I found it to be immensely moving and beautifully written. The movie was good too, Zellwegger and Kidman were great, but in my opinion Law was best; I was amazed by the way he did almost all his performance with his eye's. Wow.

    I enjoyed reading "The Lovely Bones" too, but there was something about the ending, which I didn't approve of... but that's my opinion. :)

    The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini. I read it a few months ago, but I just had to buy it. It's too good. Somewhat, have you read "The Half Brother" by Christensen? I consider it to be much much much better than "Beatles".

    Who is your least favourite author?

    Nicholas Evans, because of "The Smoke Jumper". It's the worst book ever!Nora Roberts, I've read one or two of her novels, and God they're so melodramatic. I didn't manage reading more than around 30 pages of one of Catherine Cookson's novels, and I'm not planning on reading any further EVER.

    Suggestions: December 2004

    The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini. Well.. the theme isn't christmas, but it does snow, if I'm not terribly wrong.

    I only read it because it was on the bestseller list everywhere, and I wanted to know what the fuss was all about. I must admit that it was gripping; I kept on reading because of the puzzles. Some of the aspects regarding Da Vinci’s paintings were also of interest, not to mention the...

    Are you asking out of curiousity, or are you asking because you happen to like it very much?

    i want to speed my reading

    I read fast… I don’t know why I read fast, I’ve just always read fast. I don’t do it by purpose, it just happens. A member mentioned that some people who read fast tend to miss half the book, characters, subtitles etc. That has never happen to me. Well… except once, when I had to read 4 novels...
