Oooh, I might just have to try then. Most of my favorite books have loads of descriptive words. ^^ Makes the story more vivid in the mind's eye, yes?

I think so... it's strange... because the beginning is completely descriptive and the deeper you get into it the more stuff that happens... there are SEVERAL sets of main characters and he bounces back and forth between them like an ADD kid on the internet... >.>;;

Knerd: You might want to check out a book called The Book of General Ignorance - Everything You Know is Wrong.
(I think that's what it's called) I read it, and it's pretty cute.

Hey at least Robert Jordan left an outline of how his next book was going to go. So someone else could write it.


I still haven't finished Bullet because I don't like it. ;___;

Sometimes, it's better to leave a series unfinished than have somebody else take over.

And why don't you like Bullet, Melissa?

eeeh I'm not sure.

Just something about it just rubs me wrong. These last two books have been hard for me to read. I just haven't liked the stories I suppose.

Ah, that's understandable. The four or five previous to Flirt were like that for me. xD

Hey... Anybody know what order the Merry Gentry books go in? I have a few, including ones I haven't read, and I don't want to take them with me on vacay if I can't read them in order. xD

I think I read more than 50 books a year hahahaa. I love to read so much. :3
Though my interests in books tend to drift to fantasy stories, I can enjoy a good realistic story.
Most of the books on my bookshelf are about vampires, haha :D
Whats on your bookshelf?

Random and Miscellaneous stuff... ranging from Fight Club to Wheel of Time... It's pretty diverse, but I'd have to say most of it is Scifi/Fantasy.

Bleh. I need to start posting in here a bit more. Currently I'm in the middle of reading books by Sherrilyn Kenyon, Christina Dodd, and Christine Feehan. Though, there are so many others that I want to read. I'd have read a few more books than what I currently have, but schools is such a killer.

Ooh, lots of new lists. Good luck!

I see a couple of people are reading the Sword of Truth series. My dad has been telling me about watching The Legend of the Seeker and it sounds like a good story. =)

The Sword of Truth series Is great! The first book (Wizards First Rule) is probably my most favorite but they are all really good. (well the ones I've read so far :P) I haven't really watched the series on TV though. I'm kinda afraid to because I can be really critical of movies and shows that are adapted from books XD.
