I've been meaning to read that for awhile now [and Life of Pi is on the top of my list as well] but just haven't got the time to do it. And now that I'm actually in England, I noticed that I don't even have enough time to read the ones I brought from Finland [which is just too irritating] :mad...

Beige - An Erotic Summer In Helsinki by Kreetta Onkeli I Am A Cat (first part out of 3) by Natsume Souseki September just wasn't my month this year :|

I kind of feel bad for your children :D

I dislike the same thing. I do like the fact that the books I read look like they've been read but I just hate the idea of dog-ears. Somehow it's just too much :|

How Do You Feel About Bookmarks? The other day I was sitting and reading whilst playing with my bookmark which happened to be a pen and started to wonder what you guys use as bookmarks. I mean, you can use anything from silver and gold bookmarks to old receipts [my favorites besides...

Welcome on my part as well ^^ Hope you'll enjoy your time with us.

Good thing you found books again ^^ I know the joy one feels after finding them again since I had not so long ago a 6-month break from reading [a bit short compared to your 5 years but it was awful nonetheless] and now I've returned to it again. But without further explanations, welcome aboard :D

I just have to answer this thread again since this subject is one that made me nuts on the train this morning. A man came into the train a bit after me and sat down infront of me and read something with lime-coloured covers. After awhile he looked at me like I was mad. I hadn't even noticed I...

Well, I might try to read Poe but I've read at least one of his books already and eventhough it was well written, it just didn't seem to do anything for me. But I think I could give him a second chance. And it's strange that you suggested King's The Shining and Tolkien's Hobbit since I've been...

I didn't know there were more Finns out here :D That's great! And BeerWench13, my eye thanks thee ^^ Thank you all for the warm welcome :)

Those are really easier to find ^^' If I'm lucky I'll have time to go and borrow them from the library so I won't have to buy them. I would buy them but I'm a student which should explain why I don't just go and buy them. But thanks for the idea :D They're definitely going to come with me...

Thank you for your suggestions. I'll have to try to find them once in England since I doubt I'll find them in Finland which is really a shame. Maybe I'll have to move to get to the books I want to read :>

I think people do judge you when you read outside your home. The more provocative book, the more they judge you. I just noticed this while reading a book by the finnish author Kreetta Onkeli. The name could be translated 'Beige: An Erotic Summer In Helsinki', so I got some pretty weird looks...

Thanks liktareadmore63! I'll be considering some of those books to take with me or even a few. You don't have to worry about my preferances since I'm constantly looking for new kinds of books to read :) But just to give you a hint, I've recently enjoyed Kurt Vonnegut, Terry Pratchett, Souseki...

Welcome aboard from my part as well ^^

This may be an old thread but just out of curiousity I'd like to know what is the best book you've read so far and could you tell us something about it? I'm looking for new books to read and since I'm going for a long trip I might need a lot of suggestions, so I'd appreciate your help in...
