2007-09-10 [Janouk]: Wow, you really do read a lot :)
2007-09-10 [Jitter]: And that's not at all complete yet x)
I will add as many books as I can remember but I won't include the greek ones ^^:
2007-09-10 [Janouk]: Do you read every book of the same author if you liked one or two of their works? I'd never have that patience :)
2007-09-10 [Jitter]: Depends on the author really. And whether i find the rest in the library :)
For example, I love Terry Pratchett and have bought 7 of his books, but I just can't afford the rest all the time -.-
With guy Gavriel Kay though or Tom Robbins... I cut down on everything till I could buy the whole set ^^
My biggest pet peeve is that I really don't want to break a set. So now that [Rochala] went and bought the greek version of Belgarion, I have to wait to buy the greek sequel too when I could have bought the whole set >.< *sigh* I'm crazy like that ^_^
2007-09-10 [Linderel]: I'm slowly getting rid of most the Finnish versions of books that were originally in English xD I'll need to replace them with English ones sooner or later. Preferably sooner.
And omg Eddings :P I liked his stuff really much before, but it starts to taste like plastic at some point... because he just is one of those dime in a dozen writers xP
2007-09-10 [Jitter]: I rarely buy greek books nowadays just because the translations are usually horrid. Luckily both houses that host my two gaves (Robbins and Kay) have good translations, unluckily though I have the whole collection in greek so I have to wait longer to read the new works :( *cries over the non-purchased Hardback of Ysabelle*
2007-09-10 [Janouk]: I'm waiting for a nice collection box from Harry Potter, so I haven't got them myself. It will take some time before I can actually read the last part from the library I guess :)
2007-09-10 [Jitter]: Yeah I guess :s
Luckily I bought everything in english from Harry Potter ^^ But I have the last three as hardbacks xD
2007-09-11 [Janouk]: I read English as well but I want them all to be hardbacks or something :) So I wait patiently :)
2007-09-11 [Jitter]: When I started buying them I just supposed I could be patient with new books too x)
2007-09-11 [Janouk]: Hehe :) It's hard, I know ^^
2007-09-11 [Jitter]: At the moment I'm itching to order the last book of GG Kay that came out in January and still hasn't been translated here -.- I must restrain >.<
Or buy the book in both greek and english.. But then I might feel compelled to buy all the english versions too :s
2007-09-11 [Janouk]: :) Isn't there a library that can help you out?
2007-09-11 [Jitter]: Uhm no :( Public Libraries only get the greek versions. And I'm grateful even for that since they buy their books alone or depend on donations.
2007-09-11 [Janouk]: :/
2007-09-11 [Jitter]: Yeah -.- Hopefully it will be out soon or I'll be forced to buy the english one O_O
2007-09-11 [Skydancer]: now this is a brilliant idea, very nice to see a good bookworm at work.
2007-09-11 [Jitter]: ^___^ Thanks! I will add some greek writers too but only those known abroad. Unless I'm ever bored so much that I'll go to the library and study what books I read when I was a kid x)
2007-09-17 [Linderel]: You know, the layout is a bit confusing. :P
2007-09-17 [Jitter]: It is..? :O But...but I tried to make it easy :(
2007-09-17 [Linderel]: It is! It's like, there's a letter, that's clear enough... but then there are some lonely works and then lists of some one author's works, and it's not really not that convenient trying to pick out what is what. :P
2007-09-17 [Jitter]: Yeah I see your point... I'll try and find a more convenient layout when I'm back home :3
2007-09-19 [Jitter]: *Added "Wyrd Sisters" by Terry Pratchett and "Lilith" by George McDonald
*Fixed the layout (hopefully to something better)
2007-10-11 [Lite]: wow.. where do you get the time to post all of these up?
2007-10-23 [Jitter]: Added Stardust by Neil Gaiman<3
2007-10-23 [Linderel]: Stardust <3<3<3
2007-10-23 [Jitter]: Yes :3 earned a heart bullet next to it ^^
