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 1859 Views
Hey, now (copy/paste) Camilla - 09/01/2010 07:48:56 PM 1376 Views
People should think about these things before recommending books. Tom - 09/01/2010 08:13:10 PM 1442 Views
Which is why I voted for Bulgakov's M & M. The Shrike - 09/01/2010 10:56:00 PM 1453 Views
Agreed. Madame Bovary is serious literature. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:02:34 AM 1302 Views
Are you nuts!!?? Milla - 10/01/2010 08:37:47 AM 1578 Views
I wanted to do that too. Ghavrel - 10/01/2010 01:24:42 AM 1232 Views
It's bloody marvellous. *NM* Rebekah - 10/01/2010 08:05:47 AM 603 Views
Our next discussions will have preselected options. Jacob - 10/01/2010 01:00:59 AM 1409 Views
I heartily support the move from democracy to oligarchy! Tom - 10/01/2010 01:04:13 AM 1347 Views
I agree. Rebekah - 10/01/2010 08:01:33 AM 1297 Views
I disagree slightly Larry - 09/01/2010 09:07:12 PM 1285 Views
Well, by that standard a Jackie Collins novel is worthy of debate. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:08:04 AM 1336 Views
I think you misunderstand my intent Larry - 10/01/2010 01:10:57 AM 1379 Views
You poopyhead! Tom - 10/01/2010 01:19:11 AM 1451 Views
Oh, I almost forgot Larry - 10/01/2010 01:11:50 AM 1307 Views
Ooh...I'd love to hear them!!! What did Eco say to trash Dumas? *NM* Tom - 10/01/2010 01:19:43 AM 529 Views
Here's the French translation from Eco's work on supermen Larry - 10/01/2010 01:39:28 AM 1408 Views
I love it. Strangely enough, though, he wrote an introduction to the book. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:54:24 AM 1262 Views
Not really strange as Eco has long been fascinated by this book DomA - 11/01/2010 05:01:56 PM 1272 Views
Did he mention it in his book on ugliness? Tom - 11/01/2010 05:12:55 PM 1186 Views
Re: Did he mention it in his book on ugliness? DomA - 11/01/2010 05:52:29 PM 1553 Views
I like Eco's distinction between light fiction and literature. Tom - 12/01/2010 04:16:38 PM 1404 Views
Re: Here's the French translation from Eco's work on supermen DomA - 11/01/2010 03:49:15 PM 1473 Views
That's fascinating. Of course, I disagree with Eco's praise. Tom - 11/01/2010 05:12:25 PM 1184 Views
Re: That's fascinating. Of course, I disagree with Eco's praise. DomA - 11/01/2010 06:22:24 PM 1517 Views
I agree that abridging it would not work well. Tom - 12/01/2010 04:06:26 PM 1387 Views
In which case... Jacob - 12/01/2010 05:22:34 PM 1158 Views
Yes Camilla - 13/01/2010 07:56:08 PM 1438 Views
Not really. Tom - 15/01/2010 01:18:10 PM 1609 Views
I think there are plenty of things that can be discussed. Rebekah - 09/01/2010 10:00:06 PM 1524 Views
Discussed and put to rest in 5 minutes or less, perhaps. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:17:02 AM 1394 Views
Depends on who you are, one would imagine. Rebekah - 10/01/2010 08:16:11 AM 1427 Views
<pretentious>Well, why should we cater to the lowest common denominator? Tom - 11/01/2010 02:17:03 AM 1351 Views
Heh. Rebekah - 11/01/2010 07:49:47 AM 1245 Views
I'd laugh... LadyLorraine - 11/01/2010 07:21:38 PM 1128 Views
Tom is the primary reason I want an ignore feature again. lord-of-shadow - 12/01/2010 02:17:29 AM 1175 Views
I'm glad to hear that. *NM* Tom - 12/01/2010 04:17:30 PM 553 Views
And so you've reached this decision about Tom... Raserei - 18/01/2010 10:10:44 PM 1366 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 1477 Views
It's frustrating though... LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 04:18:37 AM 1418 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 1438 Views
Perhaps. LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 05:26:38 AM 1134 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 1190 Views
I was mostly just giving an example. LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 06:14:04 AM 1286 Views
You're not. Legolas - 12/01/2010 02:16:09 PM 1232 Views
Her next series sounds interesting LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 02:20:17 PM 1129 Views
It does, but the reviews I've seen aren't too enthusiastic. Legolas - 12/01/2010 02:29:26 PM 1171 Views
Yes, but how so? LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 02:39:59 PM 1250 Views
Well... Elaine - 13/01/2010 07:03:08 PM 1336 Views
Honestly... Legolas - 13/01/2010 07:51:14 PM 1336 Views
Absolutely. Elaine - 14/01/2010 12:55:00 PM 1463 Views
Re: Absolutely. Legolas - 14/01/2010 01:57:47 PM 1311 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 1253 Views
I'm staying far, far away from Seneca. Legolas - 15/01/2010 02:01:49 PM 1498 Views
Ah, yes. The Apocolocyntosis. Possibly the least amusing humor ever penned. I hate Seneca. *NM* Ghavrel - 16/01/2010 02:14:32 AM 497 Views
ah i didn't realize it was already out LadyLorraine - 13/01/2010 11:44:53 PM 1131 Views
'tis. Elaine - 14/01/2010 12:56:11 PM 1493 Views
I really don't think it would. Rebekah - 12/01/2010 07:49:32 AM 1329 Views
I have tried before. LadyLorraine - 12/01/2010 01:59:24 PM 1215 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 1400 Views
That's bullshit Larry - 12/01/2010 11:12:55 PM 1365 Views
True, true. Rebekah - 16/01/2010 08:54:16 AM 1077 Views
Luckily for you... Larry - 16/01/2010 08:59:23 AM 1476 Views
Re: "Omigod you read light fantasy?" Raserei - 18/01/2010 10:04:41 PM 1541 Views
Har. *NM* Raserei - 18/01/2010 10:03:31 PM 724 Views
I'm quite enjoying it. Nebhead - 09/01/2010 10:40:30 PM 1347 Views
A kid's book of adventure doesn't translate into a good book club discussion. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:21:11 AM 1239 Views
I have to agree LadyLorraine - 11/01/2010 12:36:55 AM 1343 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 543 Views
It was half bullshit, you must understand LadyLorraine - 11/01/2010 03:59:42 PM 1227 Views
Come on, there is lovely tragedy there... jh - 13/01/2010 07:32:49 PM 1169 Views
I am pleased to be referenced in a cross-board discussion. *NM* Raserei - 18/01/2010 09:29:45 PM 679 Views
