A few history reads, and whatever else I fee like picking up. Mats imaginary friend Send a noteboard - 20/05/2010 09:47:26 AM
Right now I'm reading Alexander the Great, Killer of Men by David J. Lonsdale, and I'm also finishing up Return of the King. It's been a while since I read LotR so I picked them up a little while back and have been getting through them bit by bit while reading other stuff. It's good to be reminded just how much better the books are than the movies.

I also plan to get through Rome and Her Enemies and a few other books if I somehow get the cash to buy them.

A change of plans. Has anyone heard of "The Mill on the Floss" by George Eliot? Tashmere - 08/05/2010 11:51:04 AM 655 Views
The name vaguely rings a bell... also, close your italics tag. *NM* Legolas - 08/05/2010 12:39:15 PM 331 Views
? Are you just trying to mess with my head? *NM* Tashmere - 09/05/2010 12:10:09 AM 274 Views
Nah, Rebekah fixed it. Legolas - 09/05/2010 03:09:10 AM 552 Views
Bless her heart. <3 *NM* Tashmere - 09/05/2010 03:20:44 AM 298 Views
I've read it. I enjoyed it, which surprised me, because Eliot isn't the happiest writer. Rebekah - 08/05/2010 12:47:40 PM 598 Views
...I hope this is nice... Tashmere - 09/05/2010 12:18:11 AM 612 Views

I take it from that statement that The Mill on the Floss is basic reading in other countries? Tashmere - 09/05/2010 12:14:27 AM 657 Views
Re: Hmm. Not so much basic as known. Danae al'Thor - 10/05/2010 07:19:10 PM 738 Views
