The Bibliomaniac Army (booklovers, UNITE!)

Why is it that I can't find popular books at my local bookstore? -__-
The ones like Discworld, Hunger Games, etc. D:

I can't either. You are not alone.

Try Barnsandnoble.com or Amazon.com . You'll usually be able to find good books on there.

NOTE: Even if you get the $25 requirement for free shipping on Barnsandnoble, you will still have to pay tax on all of it. On Amazon, if you have the $25 requirement, you do not have to pay shipping or tax.

In other news......I just ordered "The Artemis Fowl Files" from amazon.com for only $4.00 . XD I'm so happy!
Also....for all of you who've read the "Artemis Fowl" series....can I read the "Artemis Fowl Files" without it ruining anything in the series for me? I'm only on book four (I own 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6) out of the 9 books in the series. So, yeah. If I read "The Artemis Fowl Files" now, will it spoil anything in the series that I've not read about yet?

Possibly. I am on The Atlantic Complex, and quite a lot has happened since The Opal Deception. I would be careful if you want to avoid spoilers.

Eh, I'm just a teen and I don't have a credit card or something. My parents don't even know how to use the internet [well, my dad can, but not too much].

Anyway, did any of you read, "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" or "Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter" [I'm not sure about the latter one] ?
I saw it in my bookstore and I went "LOL"
I didn't buy it, though I recommended it for my school's library. XD

I'm just a teen as well. I don't have an account on either or the websites, but my parents do. Whenever I want to buy something, I tell them. Then I log on as them and buy it. Then I pay my parents back when the bills get in. Easy-peasy.
But if your 'rents don't understand the internet....well, that makes it a bit harder. X(

In other news.....I'm 1 chapter through "Opal Deception" and already loving it.

Not that I can think of... The two short stories are unrelated to previous books, and I think you are safe. There's not really any spoilers I can think of.

I am so happy I finally finished Great Expectations. Now I can resume my fun reading of Dragonquest!

I hate how whenever you read a book for school the teachers want you to find some ultra deep, probably not even intentional meaning behind every little thing that happens. Sure, lots of books have a meaning behind them, but just because the chapter is eighteen pages long doesn't always mean that that part of the book is the most important thing in that character's life. Most of the time having to look for little things like that really annoys me because it distracts from the plot lines.

Seriously. This bugs me with my own writing, too; one time I wrote a short story just for fun and showed it to a friend, and she said "I like how (such and such character) represents Jesus." And I sort of looked at her, then reread the short story, and looked back at her, and went "...What?"

I hate that. Especially when the teacher asks you to relate something in the book to your life at home. I had to relate a blind guy to my blind cat. >.< Not the best connector.

Okay! Thanks you two!
