ah i didn't realize it was already out LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 13/01/2010 11:44:53 PM
that's a bit disappointing to hear...I might go ahead and avoid it for now then. I have other things to read and it's not like the new plot relates to the old ones.
Still Empress of the Poofy Purple Pillow Pile Palace!!
Continued Love of my Aussie <3

The Count of Monte Cristo was a terrible choice for a book discussion. Tom - 09/01/2010 07:41:01 PM 1503 Views
Hey, now (copy/paste) Camilla - 09/01/2010 07:48:56 PM 1051 Views
People should think about these things before recommending books. Tom - 09/01/2010 08:13:10 PM 1073 Views
Which is why I voted for Bulgakov's M & M. The Shrike - 09/01/2010 10:56:00 PM 1140 Views
Agreed. Madame Bovary is serious literature. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:02:34 AM 1001 Views
Are you nuts!!?? Milla - 10/01/2010 08:37:47 AM 1155 Views
I wanted to do that too. Ghavrel - 10/01/2010 01:24:42 AM 901 Views
It's bloody marvellous. *NM* Rebekah - 10/01/2010 08:05:47 AM 433 Views
Our next discussions will have preselected options. Jacob - 10/01/2010 01:00:59 AM 1063 Views
I heartily support the move from democracy to oligarchy! Tom - 10/01/2010 01:04:13 AM 994 Views
I agree. Rebekah - 10/01/2010 08:01:33 AM 1002 Views
I disagree slightly Larry - 09/01/2010 09:07:12 PM 944 Views
Well, by that standard a Jackie Collins novel is worthy of debate. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:08:04 AM 1000 Views
I think you misunderstand my intent Larry - 10/01/2010 01:10:57 AM 1057 Views
You poopyhead! Tom - 10/01/2010 01:19:11 AM 1094 Views
Oh, I almost forgot Larry - 10/01/2010 01:11:50 AM 994 Views
Ooh...I'd love to hear them!!! What did Eco say to trash Dumas? *NM* Tom - 10/01/2010 01:19:43 AM 376 Views
Here's the French translation from Eco's work on supermen Larry - 10/01/2010 01:39:28 AM 1060 Views
I love it. Strangely enough, though, he wrote an introduction to the book. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:54:24 AM 921 Views
Not really strange as Eco has long been fascinated by this book DomA - 11/01/2010 05:01:56 PM 949 Views
Did he mention it in his book on ugliness? Tom - 11/01/2010 05:12:55 PM 836 Views
Re: Did he mention it in his book on ugliness? DomA - 11/01/2010 05:52:29 PM 1162 Views
I like Eco's distinction between light fiction and literature. Tom - 12/01/2010 04:16:38 PM 1055 Views
Re: Here's the French translation from Eco's work on supermen DomA - 11/01/2010 03:49:15 PM 1044 Views
That's fascinating. Of course, I disagree with Eco's praise. Tom - 11/01/2010 05:12:25 PM 870 Views
Re: That's fascinating. Of course, I disagree with Eco's praise. DomA - 11/01/2010 06:22:24 PM 1141 Views
I agree that abridging it would not work well. Tom - 12/01/2010 04:06:26 PM 1022 Views
In which case... Jacob - 12/01/2010 05:22:34 PM 830 Views
Yes Camilla - 13/01/2010 07:56:08 PM 1118 Views
Not really. Tom - 15/01/2010 01:18:10 PM 1256 Views
I think there are plenty of things that can be discussed. Rebekah - 09/01/2010 10:00:06 PM 1199 Views
Discussed and put to rest in 5 minutes or less, perhaps. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:17:02 AM 1063 Views
Depends on who you are, one would imagine. Rebekah - 10/01/2010 08:16:11 AM 1118 Views
<pretentious>Well, why should we cater to the lowest common denominator? Tom - 11/01/2010 02:17:03 AM 1019 Views
Heh. Rebekah - 11/01/2010 07:49:47 AM 919 Views
I'd laugh... LadyLorraine - 11/01/2010 07:21:38 PM 797 Views
Tom is the primary reason I want an ignore feature again. lord-of-shadow - 12/01/2010 02:17:29 AM 835 Views
I'm glad to hear that. *NM* Tom - 12/01/2010 04:17:30 PM 370 Views
And so you've reached this decision about Tom... Raserei - 18/01/2010 10:10:44 PM 1006 Views
I don't get that. Well, of course I do from Tom, but let's put him aside for this discussion. Ghavrel - 12/01/2010 03:35:21 AM 1112 Views
It's frustrating though... LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 04:18:37 AM 1073 Views
I think if you posted that (or something like it) people would reply to it. Darth_Katie - 12/01/2010 05:08:53 AM 1076 Views
Perhaps. LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 05:26:38 AM 795 Views
Given the people who have read the Kushiel books, I think you'd be pleasantly surprised. Ghavrel - 12/01/2010 05:58:33 AM 855 Views
I was mostly just giving an example. LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 06:14:04 AM 965 Views
You're not. Legolas - 12/01/2010 02:16:09 PM 920 Views
Her next series sounds interesting LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 02:20:17 PM 788 Views
It does, but the reviews I've seen aren't too enthusiastic. Legolas - 12/01/2010 02:29:26 PM 829 Views
Yes, but how so? LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 02:39:59 PM 928 Views
Well... Elaine - 13/01/2010 07:03:08 PM 993 Views
Honestly... Legolas - 13/01/2010 07:51:14 PM 971 Views
Absolutely. Elaine - 14/01/2010 12:55:00 PM 1115 Views
Re: Absolutely. Legolas - 14/01/2010 01:57:47 PM 943 Views
In short, not a good name for a daughter. At least not one with an interest in Classics. Ghavrel - 15/01/2010 05:32:35 AM 921 Views
I'm staying far, far away from Seneca. Legolas - 15/01/2010 02:01:49 PM 1173 Views
Ah, yes. The Apocolocyntosis. Possibly the least amusing humor ever penned. I hate Seneca. *NM* Ghavrel - 16/01/2010 02:14:32 AM 353 Views
ah i didn't realize it was already out LadyLorraine - 13/01/2010 11:44:53 PM 755 Views
'tis. Elaine - 14/01/2010 12:56:11 PM 1159 Views
I really don't think it would. Rebekah - 12/01/2010 07:49:32 AM 989 Views
I have tried before. LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 01:59:24 PM 895 Views
If it is well-written and defends the value of the book, I don't see why you shouldn't post it. Tom - 12/01/2010 05:12:58 PM 1069 Views
That's bullshit Larry - 12/01/2010 11:12:55 PM 1026 Views
True, true. Rebekah - 16/01/2010 08:54:16 AM 727 Views
Luckily for you... Larry - 16/01/2010 08:59:23 AM 1119 Views
Re: "Omigod you read light fantasy?" Raserei - 18/01/2010 10:04:41 PM 1205 Views
Har. *NM* Raserei - 18/01/2010 10:03:31 PM 535 Views
I'm quite enjoying it. Nebhead - 09/01/2010 10:40:30 PM 951 Views
A kid's book of adventure doesn't translate into a good book club discussion. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:21:11 AM 872 Views
I have to agree LadyLorraine - 11/01/2010 12:36:55 AM 1013 Views
How did you find deeper meaning (pun intended) in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea? *NM* Tom - 11/01/2010 02:17:55 AM 382 Views
It was half bullshit, you must understand LadyLorraine - 11/01/2010 03:59:42 PM 887 Views
Come on, there is lovely tragedy there... jh - 13/01/2010 07:32:49 PM 852 Views
I am pleased to be referenced in a cross-board discussion. *NM* Raserei - 18/01/2010 09:29:45 PM 504 Views
