Exactly, not even rounded up. :D My book buying must be really strange. It is not as if all my Kindle books are free or specials or otherwise somehow exempt. Just puzzling. :confused:

I have the feeling I am missing a whole stream of life. :( I could have a whole nother stack alongside my side of the couch. :) But seriously, someday I gotta. At least one anyway.

Hah, Ho! $0.73. /rubbing my eyes/ I once did get a huge annual refund from Borders. Probably why the went out of business. :( But, many thanks for the heads up. Discovered an email from a long lost cousin. Yay and hooray! So, all things conspire for good in this best of all possible...

Right you are, Angury. Lolita was not just a one off. He has written many novels, 16 or 17, and they are all wonderful. Each one different and each one excellent -- if you can imagine such a thing for an author. And then of course his memoir, Speak Memory, which is truly in a world by...

That really branches off into philosophical areas where I have no reply.

I hope this is the place to mention politely that Member has reached my limit for tolerance and has been added to my Ignore list. I think he will understand why.

My name is Peder. That means please use it when you address me. I don't use belittling diminutives of your name. And I won't reply in kind here either. This is not the gutter or the schoolyard.

I like Frankie, the one, the only. But "inspirational" to me means hymns. Like, "When Morning Gilds the Skies."

On this dismal question I'll offer the contrary dismal view. I think (actually, believe) that people have within themselves the capability for evil, as well as the capability for good. And not just some people but, in a way, all people. I think that the competitive urge for survival from our...

I love that clip!

You are building a good case for one. On what kinds of forums have you seen "dislike" buttons? None I have ever been on.

In view of your own posts, "once is enough" of just exactly what?

I see all of your pronouncements spread through your numerous posts. I was wondering what enlightened generation you place yourself in?

Why missiles? This thread sounds like everyone is quite tolerant of long good novels? I prefer them -- have even read the Bible -- so I don't see the problem.

Dentist.

That would have been a grievious misspelling. :D

Yes, there certainly are upscale graphic novels designed for adults, with classic works and elaborate graphics. However, it has never been clear to me what their sales are. Most people still seem to think of graphic novels as being typical "comic books," along with their comic-book...

Conversely, you might still choose to join in BOTM for April. There is still plenty of time to read If on a Winter's Night a Traveler. There are many short stories in that one that can be digested one at a time in separate sittings.
