I think that would definitely qualify. Legolas Send a noteboard - 17/12/2010 09:07:28 PM
Question re: Family Chronicle. Do you mean books like One Hundred Years of Solitude?

We were trying to think of less obvious genres and that one came to mind, but there are definitely many kinds of family chronicles, ranging from the highly literary like OHYoS to the, well, pulp. The choice is yours. :P

I refuse to watch film versions of books if I can help it Larry - 14/12/2010 01:20:21 AM 1195 Views
I generally agree, but sometimes the movies are better than the books. *NM* ranagrande - 14/12/2010 01:27:44 AM 707 Views
Most of my favorite books are unfilmable. *NM* Larry - 14/12/2010 01:40:04 AM 683 Views
Just like Watchmen! *NM* Craig - 14/12/2010 02:46:14 AM 682 Views

Lots of poor movies there Larry - 14/12/2010 10:48:59 PM 1218 Views

Question: Can books count for multiple challenges? *NM* Great Lord of Chaos - 14/12/2010 09:34:28 PM 773 Views
Preferably not. But we can be tolerant if you're running out of time. Rebekah - 14/12/2010 09:49:26 PM 1195 Views
But the challenge-books can count towards the 50 and the book you'd been meaning to read. Legolas - 14/12/2010 10:17:12 PM 1176 Views

Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian? Larry - 15/12/2010 01:08:04 PM 1388 Views
I liked The Road and No Country For Old Men as well. Jessie - 22/12/2010 06:23:23 PM 1262 Views
Is The Road really a western, though? *NM* Legolas - 22/12/2010 10:30:44 PM 734 Views
true. Not so much, I just always pigeonhole McCarthy as a westernish writer. *NM* Jessie - 25/12/2010 02:20:54 AM 632 Views
Karl May? Legolas - 15/12/2010 07:27:03 PM 1345 Views
