What's sad about that? :) By the way, welcome, I'm sure you'll like it here. ;)

I have only read the first volume yet, and lord knows when I’ll get the second one from the library, so I thought I might as well just express my opinions about what I’ve read so far. I think it started very well. It had my full attention from the beginning. However there are some exaggerated...

I'm a little curious; do you mean the whole list of books I intend on reading?

Even maths, biology, chemistry, physics and economy? :D In my case, it's fun learning things, as long as I get them. If I don't understand a thing, it's no fun any longer. :eek: It's different though, if I have interest in it. :)

This reminded me of: "Et tu, Kochu Maria? Then fall, Estha!" :D It's a brilliant book, you'll enjoy every page of it. ;)

Every answer given to my english teacher about any poem, used to be wrong, since it wasn't in accordance to what she meant was the correct answer. Like she had written them all!! :eek: BLAH! I liked the teachers who used to say that every answer on what a poetry really was about was correct...

Yeah, Estella was a total weirdo, but that wasn't really that surprising, considering who she was brought up by. Miss Havisham, GOD, she really got on my nerves! Locking herself up in that house, because a certain guy refused to marry her. How pathetic is that. :eek: She should just have killed...

Maybe the author’s intention was to reflect upon the matter of double standard. :confused: I know it sounds a little stupid, but that's what I thought of, after reading novella's post (the long one). But don't we all, in one way or another do the same? Does that make us all phonies...

Isn't Kwan a lot of fun? :D

I just finished "Great Expectations"! :D :D :D I didn't like Pip at all, and I think he got what he deserved. I would have been happier if he got killed though, but whatever... :p

Welcome Scratchy! :D

I borrowed this book from the library a week ago, and it's next on my reading list, right after "The Count of Monte Cristo". :) I'll let you know what I think of it. ;)

FINALLY, someone else mentions it! I really thought I was the only one around here who had read it. I agree with you, it's a great novel, and I think everyone should give it a try. It didn't sound that interesting to me when I picked it up, but it turned out to be really good. It truly is one of...

I don't think I would have given someone between the age of 11 and 15 a Charles Dickens novel to read. I, myself, have only read half of "Great Expectations", and I really don't understand how a kid at that age would be interested in this kind of book. I'm not saying it's boring or anything...

I loved Spice Girls when I was little, along with Backstreet Boys...:D I mean their songs, not them. :eek:

I borrowed it from the library a few days ago and I'm looking forward to read it! Just have to finish "Great Expectations" first. :)

It's an excellent read! I love the way it's told, very casually (not sure if that's the right word) and direct, through the main character Holden.

I just finished reading "The Electric Michelangelo" by Sarah Hall. It was an OK read, not as bad I thought it would be, but not that good either.

Hey U... Welcome! I have read a Patterson-book.. Jack & Jill.. wasn't bad :p

WOW... I didn't know that. Must be pretty heavy, that book. I want that too. *cry*
