ElfinYoda Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 I am still reading World War Z. It did not help that I had a house guest for a week, so concentrating on any of the books I am currently reading was non-existent, plus they are all overdue now. I like WWZ so far. Some parts were too techno laden, but I can totally picture a lot of it. Definitely is a different spin on Zombies, I like that it is told in a different view and not all gory and rediculous. One could almost think this really had happened, almost, if you lived in a cave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheep Murderer Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Nature's Secrets RevealedScientific Knowlege of The Laws of Sex Life and Heredity or EUGENICS"Vital information for the Married and Marriageable of All Ages; a Word at the Right Time to the Boy, Girl, Young Man, Young Woman, Husband, Wife, Father and Mother; Also, Timely Help, Counsel and Instruction for Every Member of Every Home. together with important hints on SOCIAL PURITY, HEREDITY, PHYSICAL MANHOOD AND WOMANHOOD by noted specialists." This is a riot. It's the 1919 edition. Original copyright: 1904. "We will never solve the problems of intemperance until children are better born (...) We will never solve the problems of crime, feeble-mindedness, and the social evil until children are better born. We will never empty the jails, reformatories, penitentiaries, and insane asylums by legistlation." ...and it gets better. I love this crazy stuff.

ligeia Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Just finished reading Anne of Green Gables and Anne of Avonlea by L.M. Montgomery. A bit of nostalgia! It's probably been near 15 years that I last read them. Started Emma by Jane Austen and The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copper Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Maker- I tried to read that once but I was unsucessful. It was sooo dry and boring. But then again, I could care less about warfare so there's that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hammurabi-Sith Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 So "The Woods are Dark" sucked. I am now waiting for two new books hitting the market soon. Ghost Walk by the great Brian Keene on July 29th and on August 8 Bentley Little's "The Academy" Then summer is over and it's back to school for me.

ElfinYoda Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 I finished two books on Saturday... The Speaks the Nightbird and Guilty Pleasures. I enjoyed both books immensely! Thanks to SD and Copper respectively for the recommends! I am currently reading another Vamp book, The Vampire Files Volume One by P. N. Elrod. I also have Volume 2, I bought both books (which are each compromised of 3 books each) at Borders with a coupon. I am only just into Volume One, but so far I like it.

Cerina Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 I picked up Bloody Bones and The Killing Dance from HPB the other day. So I'm giving BB a chance again...since the first time was rudely interruped by a fetus. It feels good to read something that has NOTHING to do with babies for a change.

Copper Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 I believe the sex actually begins in The Killing Dance and then it just goes full-tilt from there. Hold on to your...knickers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
