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 1717 Views
Hey, now (copy/paste) Camilla - 09/01/2010 07:48:56 PM 1257 Views
People should think about these things before recommending books. Tom - 09/01/2010 08:13:10 PM 1312 Views
Which is why I voted for Bulgakov's M & M. The Shrike - 09/01/2010 10:56:00 PM 1344 Views
Agreed. Madame Bovary is serious literature. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:02:34 AM 1177 Views
Are you nuts!!?? Milla - 10/01/2010 08:37:47 AM 1434 Views
I wanted to do that too. Ghavrel - 10/01/2010 01:24:42 AM 1098 Views
It's bloody marvellous. *NM* Rebekah - 10/01/2010 08:05:47 AM 536 Views
Our next discussions will have preselected options. Jacob - 10/01/2010 01:00:59 AM 1281 Views
I heartily support the move from democracy to oligarchy! Tom - 10/01/2010 01:04:13 AM 1241 Views
I agree. Rebekah - 10/01/2010 08:01:33 AM 1169 Views
I disagree slightly Larry - 09/01/2010 09:07:12 PM 1162 Views
Well, by that standard a Jackie Collins novel is worthy of debate. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:08:04 AM 1209 Views
I think you misunderstand my intent Larry - 10/01/2010 01:10:57 AM 1251 Views
You poopyhead! Tom - 10/01/2010 01:19:11 AM 1315 Views
Oh, I almost forgot Larry - 10/01/2010 01:11:50 AM 1194 Views
Ooh...I'd love to hear them!!! What did Eco say to trash Dumas? *NM* Tom - 10/01/2010 01:19:43 AM 477 Views
Here's the French translation from Eco's work on supermen Larry - 10/01/2010 01:39:28 AM 1276 Views
I love it. Strangely enough, though, he wrote an introduction to the book. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:54:24 AM 1146 Views
Not really strange as Eco has long been fascinated by this book DomA - 11/01/2010 05:01:56 PM 1144 Views
Did he mention it in his book on ugliness? Tom - 11/01/2010 05:12:55 PM 1057 Views
Re: Did he mention it in his book on ugliness? DomA - 11/01/2010 05:52:29 PM 1411 Views
I like Eco's distinction between light fiction and literature. Tom - 12/01/2010 04:16:38 PM 1272 Views
Re: Here's the French translation from Eco's work on supermen DomA - 11/01/2010 03:49:15 PM 1310 Views
That's fascinating. Of course, I disagree with Eco's praise. Tom - 11/01/2010 05:12:25 PM 1060 Views
Re: That's fascinating. Of course, I disagree with Eco's praise. DomA - 11/01/2010 06:22:24 PM 1372 Views
I agree that abridging it would not work well. Tom - 12/01/2010 04:06:26 PM 1253 Views
In which case... Jacob - 12/01/2010 05:22:34 PM 1037 Views
Yes Camilla - 13/01/2010 07:56:08 PM 1316 Views
Not really. Tom - 15/01/2010 01:18:10 PM 1481 Views
I think there are plenty of things that can be discussed. Rebekah - 09/01/2010 10:00:06 PM 1410 Views
Discussed and put to rest in 5 minutes or less, perhaps. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:17:02 AM 1268 Views
Depends on who you are, one would imagine. Rebekah - 10/01/2010 08:16:11 AM 1305 Views
<pretentious>Well, why should we cater to the lowest common denominator? Tom - 11/01/2010 02:17:03 AM 1216 Views
Heh. Rebekah - 11/01/2010 07:49:47 AM 1119 Views
I'd laugh... LadyLorraine - 11/01/2010 07:21:38 PM 1005 Views
Tom is the primary reason I want an ignore feature again. lord-of-shadow - 12/01/2010 02:17:29 AM 1051 Views
I'm glad to hear that. *NM* Tom - 12/01/2010 04:17:30 PM 492 Views
And so you've reached this decision about Tom... Raserei - 18/01/2010 10:10:44 PM 1231 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 1327 Views
It's frustrating though... LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 04:18:37 AM 1303 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 1302 Views
Perhaps. LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 05:26:38 AM 1014 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 1065 Views
I was mostly just giving an example. LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 06:14:04 AM 1177 Views
You're not. Legolas - 12/01/2010 02:16:09 PM 1120 Views
Her next series sounds interesting LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 02:20:17 PM 995 Views
It does, but the reviews I've seen aren't too enthusiastic. Legolas - 12/01/2010 02:29:26 PM 1055 Views
Yes, but how so? LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 02:39:59 PM 1127 Views
Well... Elaine - 13/01/2010 07:03:08 PM 1218 Views
Honestly... Legolas - 13/01/2010 07:51:14 PM 1218 Views
Absolutely. Elaine - 14/01/2010 12:55:00 PM 1354 Views
Re: Absolutely. Legolas - 14/01/2010 01:57:47 PM 1142 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 1133 Views
I'm staying far, far away from Seneca. Legolas - 15/01/2010 02:01:49 PM 1386 Views
Ah, yes. The Apocolocyntosis. Possibly the least amusing humor ever penned. I hate Seneca. *NM* Ghavrel - 16/01/2010 02:14:32 AM 443 Views
ah i didn't realize it was already out LadyLorraine - 13/01/2010 11:44:53 PM 1005 Views
'tis. Elaine - 14/01/2010 12:56:11 PM 1384 Views
I really don't think it would. Rebekah - 12/01/2010 07:49:32 AM 1205 Views
I have tried before. LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 01:59:24 PM 1093 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 1275 Views
That's bullshit Larry - 12/01/2010 11:12:55 PM 1250 Views
True, true. Rebekah - 16/01/2010 08:54:16 AM 956 Views
Luckily for you... Larry - 16/01/2010 08:59:23 AM 1348 Views
Re: "Omigod you read light fantasy?" Raserei - 18/01/2010 10:04:41 PM 1404 Views
Har. *NM* Raserei - 18/01/2010 10:03:31 PM 653 Views
I'm quite enjoying it. Nebhead - 09/01/2010 10:40:30 PM 1230 Views
A kid's book of adventure doesn't translate into a good book club discussion. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:21:11 AM 1103 Views
I have to agree LadyLorraine - 11/01/2010 12:36:55 AM 1227 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 486 Views
It was half bullshit, you must understand LadyLorraine - 11/01/2010 03:59:42 PM 1095 Views
Come on, there is lovely tragedy there... jh - 13/01/2010 07:32:49 PM 1052 Views
I am pleased to be referenced in a cross-board discussion. *NM* Raserei - 18/01/2010 09:29:45 PM 604 Views
