2007-11-28 [sequeena_rae]: It does my head in as in I can't stand it.

2007-11-28 [Linderel]: Haha. To each their own :P

2007-11-28 [sequeena_rae]: I'm having trouble with Terry Brooks :P

2007-11-28 [Linderel]: I don't think I've ever read anything of his :o

2007-11-28 [sequeena_rae]: He's quite good :) I'm reading The Sword of Shannara by him :p

2008-12-05 [Viking]: I highly recommend Mask of the Sorcerer by Darrell Schweitzer.

2008-12-05 [Linderel]: Which I already put there. :3

2008-12-05 [Viking]: Yes, but it needs to be moved to the top of the list.

2008-12-05 [Linderel]: The list has no bearing on the order in which I'm reading them, I just add new ones to the bottom but I'm just as likely to read that one next as, say, Cryptonomicon.

2008-12-05 [Viking]: Ah, "I see" said the blind man to his deaf dog.

2008-12-06 [Linderel]: And currently I'm trying to get the Potters over and done with, since I've promised Trin. My problem is the severe denial I am in about some of the events.

2008-12-06 [Viking]: Understandable. I've not finished that particular series.

2009-01-10 [Linderel]: The last three years have been pathetic on many accounts, including reading. Let's see if I can't make 2009 a banner year for academic brilliance and book devouring.

2009-01-20 [Black Adder]: o_O
Oh dear. When I asked for recommended books, I only wanted one or two
:p

2009-01-20 [Linderel]: Haha. Imagine me trying to get all of these read eventually. :P

2009-01-20 [Black Adder]: See, I work on a book by book principle.

2010-06-30 [sweet.tx.tea]: Your list is lovely. :D

2011-03-15 [Rice]: Anthony Burgess: A Clockwork Orange! Bloody good book. I suggest you read that one next...hurr hurr.

2011-03-15 [Linderel]: I'll read it when I feel like it, and when I have time for it. :P Right now I have a pile of books that have been on loan from the uni library for fucking ages. And then there's the course readings of course.

2011-03-15 [Rice]: I had a book from the library for 3 years once and got so worried taking it back. But she didn't care, I was only 8.

2012-08-22 Yunie: THanks a lot for the videos! There is so much to learn and knwnoig about how she went about the books makes reading the books all the more nicer, now that we know, to what extent she had worked out the details.Her books do give the undeniable feeling that she knows every single detail of the world she is penning down, right down to the smell of the flavoured beans or the color of hair bow of Dolores Umbridge!Thanks a lot for the video!
