    Studio Ghibli's Tales of Earthsea

    Direstraits, Thanks DS. If this magical tome doth indeed bring happiness and gladsomeness, then thou shall be blessed indeed. :D It should be here tomorrow, and I shall put aside my current lot and read it first - your enthusiasm is rubbing off on me.:)

    I'm going to be crushed

    Excellent, I'll pester her until she posts a review :D . I saw that sitting on a neighbours bookshelf, surrounded by fantasy books and men's health magazines. Bizarre.

    I'm going to be crushed

    Blimey, that is quite a list. Have you read that one yet? If so, would you say it was a top of the pile book, somewhere in the middle or right at the bottom? This one sounds like riveting reading. Can we expect a review?:D I doubt I'd be able to maintain a list though, I haven't even...

    I'm going to be crushed

    The only thing my relatives are likely to leave me are hereditary medical problems like dementia :D Come to think of it I'll probably be the sad old aunt who leaves behind tons of books ..:( I'm too scared to tally up how many I've bought. 16? My library only allows 9 :( That is why I...

    Sure (i'm assuming the invitation is open to all :D ) No idea what this is, but sounds interesting. Hearing everyone actually speak will be a bit weird :) .

    New James Bond Book

    I'm pretty sure that Shade said this humorously but... Lee Childs is highly beloved by his fans, is he highly respected by people within the publishing industry? I don't know perhaps he is, perhaps you should link us to some sources to say he is. Actually don't bother, this is getting too...

    Studio Ghibli's Tales of Earthsea

    Direstraits, Will do. Any idea when it'll release in the UK? In anticipation of the film, I ordered the Earthsea Quartet from Amazon this afternoon. I'll let you know when I'm done reading :D .

    New James Bond Book

    *I think* perhaps he was referring to my post: Chris, I didn't have the time on that particular day to find out exactly when the last book was published. Neither am I in the habit of declaring things that I haven't checked to be 100% accurate - so the 'I think' was meant to say 'as far as I am...

    Question Game

    I take my chances (and end up getting soaked) unless I have to be smart for work - in which case i use an umbrella but that's about it. What is the best gift you have ever received?

    Goodkind Quotes

    Of course we would have a good laugh, I don't discriminate - I laugh at everything ;). I did, actually I bought it, and now it sits on my shelf as a reminder not to buy any more Goodkind books. I appreciate that you liked it, but I didn't because a) it was full of ridiculous scenes b)it was...

    Question Game

    Any or all of those :D . Nope. (btw Vesper, I'm a She..:D ) If you had to star in any movie (past or present) which would it be and what role would you play?

    Studio Ghibli's Tales of Earthsea

    Direstraits, No idea. I haven't read any of the Earthsea stuff, but if Studio Ghibli have made the film then I can't wait to watch it.
