Title: Ghost Stories of an Antiquary
Author: M.R. James
Genre: Horror, short stories
Plot: These short stories will take you to a heart pounding landscape, which appears normal until you stray from the path...
Why You Love It: I found these stories quite by accident, but Prof. James atmosphere and images of shadows that cross between worlds has made me fall in love with his stories.


Seriously, I can't recommend him enough to people. I'm really surprised how many people have never heard of such a wonderful writer. He's perfect at knowing how to pace a story and where it should be left off. As well as knowing that sometimes it's scarier not to know what is making those footsteps outside your door.
(If you don't feel like reading, there are some video's on youtube of Robert Powell reading them aloud.)

I was off eating a bowl of popcorn.

I liked Teen Titans, too. <3

Teen Titans was my favorite show, but now it's Avatar: The Last Airbender.

I'm back, guys! I might disappear again for dessert or to be social (my dad's girlfriend, her son and her sister are over, I don't want to be rude) but for now I'm around.

Rain- Pocahontas is my favorite of the three as well. What about you, do you think she'll do a good job?

Sesshy- I remember being a fan of KogaxKagome, myself. They were my favorite pairing for the longest time! I did still like
KagomexSesshomaru, though.

I want to see it again! It was such a beautiful movie. The animation was to die for, oh my goodness it was so gorgeous! I really like At Last I See The Light, but I feel like it's the only song from Tangled that was on par with music from other Disney films. I like all the songs from it, but I do think the lyrics were a bit of a let-down. :no:

Ashtyn- That's really your name? Augh, I'm jealous! It's so pretty. :)

Hello Shi, and welcome welcome welcome! Let me go add your recommendation. :3 That book sounds great, I want to go out and buy it right now, haha! Also, let me send you your page prize.

Rain- Avatar the Last Airbender is one of my favorite shows!! Have you heard about Avatar the Last Airbender: Legend of Korra?

It takes place 70 years after Aang's story, and it's about Korra, the new avatar. She's a really cool warrior-type girl from the Southern Water tribe!

Anyone read Pretty Little Liars by Sara Shepard?
Iltu- She might do a good job, I have no clue really. And yes, I have heard of Legend of Korra. Any idea when it's coming out?

Only 70 years later? Aang doesn't get to grow ancient?

It does sound cool, though.

Angel- Nope. :no: I think he is only about 66 or so when he dies, not counting the time he was frozen. Talk about disappointing...

Rain- I have not read those books, sorry! My sister watches the show, though.
It comes out mid-2012, no concrete release date yet.

Wow thanks Iltu!
Wow! I'm glad my post was so convincing. >w< And the book is free to read on the internet since it was written in the early 1900's, so no more copyright on it.

I haven't read pretty little liars either ^^' I get hooked on the show every so often.

So many people seem excited about legend of Korra. ^^' I've already seen fan art for it.

Shi- Thank you for coming in to chat. ;D
Oooo, I might do that, then! Or listen to them on YouTube, like you said. That would be good creepy fun!

It looks like it's going to be a really good show, which doesn't usually happen (in my opinion) with spin-offs. The trailer looks so cool.

I think I'll try it in the dark and see how long I can make it without running blind for the light, hehe!
And it's crazy that people are already shipping! We know almost nothing about the characters. :roll:

Very much so! If the lecture was interesting I would just play harbor fishing while I listened, rather than talking in threads :P
