Don't read Moby Dick brah

Didn't intend to.

Unless you *really* like whales

Hehehehhehe
As strange as it sounds, I'm somewhat sentimental towards Misery.



I didn't enjoy Harry Potter until 3. I hated the first 2, though it could be because I honestly didn't warm to the series until about 2007 and the first 2 are rather.. simple?

Books 3 and 4 are my favourites

[carpe_diem]

I only read parts of 1-5. Then gave up.

I read like the first ~150 pages of 1, 2 and 5 and ~50 pages of 3 and 4.

So boring.

Nup. I've enjoyed a few fantasies in my day (deltora quest and Roald Dahl books were the gr8est), and I've read a few murder mystery-like things, but I just didn't enjoy the constant mapping of shit in Shining without any actual content, and I just found HP boring.

You sir, are awesome Brings back primary school memories

Yeah, I didn't think I ever read in primary school, and then I remembered all the Deltora Quest, Goose Bumps, etc. and Roald Dahl books.

Did you know they made Deltora Quest into a tv show? (it's pretty shit)

I loved deltora quest a lot, didnt mind the anime version (though it wasnt anything special, really good animation technique in parts though) but only seen a few eps so far.

I'll probably end up adding a few more after my holiday reading marathon.

The Da Vinci Code? - Dan Brown

Lol, no, but the Da Vinci Code is a good book (so much bullshit involved which seems hardly plausible to any rational reader, but eh, it was entertaining I suppose). The book was about Leonardo Da Vinci's life and his artwork and his inventions and other scientific breakthroughs such as dissecting a human being and drawing and noting the human anatomy. It was fantastic! It's on my bookshelf somewhere, I'll look for it later on and I'll post the name of it on here.
