April 2006, 14:51:31 Subject: Re: requests Dolittle: I'll get em done in a little bit.... 8. April 2006, 07:13:21 Subject: Re: steven king  Kipling:
The Stand opened my eyes to his writings. It was regarded as horror because it involved the results of a bio catastrophe. The book is not about horror, it is about Good vs Evil One of the Best Books I have ever read 8. April 2006, 03:41:23 Subject: Re: steven king Kipling: The Stand wasn't much. The Dead Zone was pretty good. But I'm not a King fan. Give me John Le Carre anyday. 8. April 2006, 03:03:19 Subject: Re: steven king Modified by Bwild (8. April 2006, 03:04:54)  Eriisa: I read The Stand....imo it was the worse book I ever forced myself to read. lol a large book mind you...but hey, it was Stephen King..so I kept reading it. when the book was over...I got up..walked to the door of the Chicago motel room I was in,and tossed it out into the parking lot. havent read another King book since. 8. April 2006, 01:14:27 Subject: Re: steven king  Eriisa:There are several books listed in the posts that need to be added to the request list. Hrqls told me how to do it but I am not seeing what he told me to click on. If you wouldn't mind, could you add them for me? Please and thank you!!! 8. April 2006, 00:11:35 Subject: Re: steven king Dolittle: I like some Steven King. I think my favorite was The Stand. I remember reading it when it first came out in '77 (I think). But I didn't like Misery, so much in fact, that I never did watch the movie of it. 7. April 2006, 21:03:16 Subject: Re: Forgot one ajtgirl:Good to see you back! All those books sound interesting except for Cell..I just don't care much for Stephen King. I would like to read Songs in Ordinary Time..will PM you!! 7. April 2006, 20:29:20 Subject: Forgot one Also add Cell by Stephen King, his most recent novel
Does Dolittle want Songs in Ordinary Time? If so, send me your addy again...I misplaced it. 7. April 2006, 20:26:40 Subject: New additions to the Library Hi Everyone! I read Blow Fly while on vacation so am ready to pass it on. It was a good vacation read.
I also would like to add these to circulation: The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls Let me know who wants Blow Fly next or any of these others.  3.

April 2006, 16:34:06 Subject: Re: The De Vinci Code Dolittle: What an optimist you are. lol :o) 1. April 2006, 16:29:49 Subject: Re: The De Vinci Code Mr. Usurper: Guess you can build another!!:o) 1. April 2006, 13:02:35 Subject: Re: The De Vinci Code Hrqls: *sigh* Had I known, I'd still have my library. :o) 1. April 2006, 12:50:13 Subject: Re: The De Vinci Code Mr. Usurper: wood burns better, but then i am not talking about virginia woods :) 1. April 2006, 12:48:23 Subject: Re: The De Vinci Code Hrqls: I buy Harry Potter books just so I can burn them. LOL
Ok cool, thanks for the info. :o) 1. April 2006, 08:59:55 Subject: Re: The De Vinci Code Mr. Usurper: the da vinci code is a nice book, a nice detective-like book with some puzzles in them which the main persons in the book have to solve
the puzzles involve the church (i think roman catcholic, but not sure, at least cristian :)) as well as the tempeliers there are some things said in the book which are a bit controversial ... but nothing people should get mad about ... well as long as you wont get mad about the sorcery in harry potter :) 1. April 2006, 07:07:51 Subject: Re: The De Vinci Code Dolittle: LOL  1. April 2006, 05:52:36 Subject: Re: The De Vinci Code Mr. Usurper: You keep mentioning good books and I will be back in the book store!!LOL 1. April 2006, 04:01:05 Subject: Re: The De Vinci Code Dolittle: Cool! I haven't read Little Women but should. But that reminds me of Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen. Great read! 1. April 2006, 03:08:35 Subject: Re: Narnia I finished #7 book The Last Battle and I don't remember what happened in the other books 1. April 2006, 03:06:41 Subject: Narnia Why is these books so great. Sounds like God, Jesus and eternity for animals 1. April 2006, 02:17:35 Subject: Re: The De Vinci Code Mr. Usurper: It is based on the bible and parts of it reach way into the imagination. I haven't read it but that is just what I have heard.
By the way, I found The Grapes of Wrath at a used book store today. Can't wait to read it. I also bought my all time favorite, "Little Women". 30. March 2006, 04:21:34 Subject: The De Vinci Code I keep hearing that title but have no idea what it is. 30. March 2006, 04:00:30 Subject: Re: Tuesday: No I didn't! Be sure to send that by media mail, it's cheaper that way.
Thanks a lot!! 30. March 2006, 03:49:30 Subject: Re: Tuesday: Yes, that's the one! Do you mind sending it? 30. March 2006, 03:33:18 Tuesday, it's fine to be fiction but he shouldn't take excerpts from someone else's book.
I am ready for that book anytime you are ready to send it. You still have my addy? 30. March 2006, 02:11:13 Subject: Re: The Grapes of Wrath The Usurper:I enjoyed that book too. James Frey admitted that parts of the book were not true. They are saying the same thing now about The DeVinci Code. All that publicity just sells more books so let them keep on talking! 30. March 2006, 00:44:35 Subject: Re: The Grapes of Wrath Dolittle: Hey that list thing is pretty cool. I hadn't noticed it. Thanks!
A Million Little Pieces was so good I had my 15-year-old son read it (he's at that pivotal age). He fell in love with it of course. It was an eye-opener for one so young. And now I don't have the heart to tell him that large portions of the book are fiction....very good fiction nonetheless. lol 29. March 2006, 23:59:56 Subject: Re: The Grapes of Wrath The Usurper: Check out our request lists above and if you care to participate, just let me know!! 29. March 2006, 23:55:47 Subject: Re: The Grapes of Wrath Dolittle: I expected it to be but it wasn't. Maybe it's just me. lol One Thousand White Women sounds...umm...interesting. LOL! :o 29. March 2006, 19:22:11 Subject: Re: The Grapes of Wrath The Usurper:Isn't it rather hard to get interested at the start? I am reading One Thousand White Women at the moment. It's a fictional writing based on history. Am enjoying that one! 29. March 2006, 18:32:58 Subject: Re: The Grapes of Wrath Dolittle: You are welcome.
It is poetic & powerful. I was engrossed & moved. 29. March 2006, 18:27:47 Subject: Re: The Grapes of Wrath The Usurper:Thanks Greg, I have always heard that was a good book but have never read it.  29. March 2006, 13:50:52 Subject: The Grapes of Wrath Sounds boring but it's one of the best books you'll ever read. 21. March 2006, 07:10:51 Subject: Re: House of Sand and Fog ajtgirl:Cool, I am excited about our book exchange, it is working so well. Let me know if you find that book. 21. March 2006, 05:14:39 Subject: House of Sand and Fog Dolittle:
Is an excellent read. I highly recommend it. I also recommend The Kite Runner...already gave my copy away, I think, but if I find it I'll add it to the library. 21. March 2006, 05:07:45 Subject: Re: Swan Tuesday:Thanks, but you don't have to rush. I am reading that book that ajtgirl sent right now!! << < 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 > >> |
