that just means i don't have time to read.... temeraire Send a noteboard - 05/08/2010 04:30:42 PM

1) what's the longest time you've spent reading a book?


for myself, maybe 2 weeks? which means i only had time to read at bedtime for 2 weeks.... for school, i'm not sure, longer probably. some of those books were boring as hell.

2) do you ever get put off by length?


nope

3) what about complexity?


nope

4) how long is too long?


i have no idea.

5) Is there any hope of me making it through Tom Bombadil in this thing?


i don't know

Y'all have a great day now, y'hear.


you too!

The latter, but curiosity keeps winning out. *NM* Ghavrel - 03/08/2010 10:55:50 PM 360 Views
