Yeah, I kept objecting to my brother when he tried to get me to read Watership Down, yelling "BUT IT'S ABOUT BUNNIES!" xD I think I'll probably end up starting it this weekend, because my friend Strawberry_Rain borrowed the Hunger Games from me, which I want so desperately to re-read... grrr...

Night sounds good too, I think I have a copy of it somewhere... *ransacks through bookshelves*

Yeah... when me and my sister were little my mom rented the movie of Watership Down for us... and it kind of scarred our little minds. :< Take, for example, General Woundwort. Creepiest freaking bunnyrabbit ever. ;___;

No, I haven't read it yet, but hopefully I'm going to. Soon. The book is even on my little bedside table, I just need to finish A Picture Of Dorian Gray. xD I've heard that it's a really good book, though, just... creepy. 8|

Okay have any of you ever read Marked?? if not; stear clear that book is predictable boring and a horrible rip off of Twilight!!! My friends made me read it, I will never ask them about a good book to read again. And the writing style was horrible, it just made me mad reading it!!! Okay, I'll stop now before i cant stop :twisted:

@Jabberwock: The book I was talking about was Marked, and now i have new ideas for my collection of reads.. Yay *runs of to Barnes & Noble* Heehee. The Book theif sounds really good. THANKS!!! :D

Is that Picture of Dorian Gray good? I heard it was good (from one source) and boring (from another)?

Well, it kind of depends on what kind of books you like to read. I really like it and think that it's very good, but for some it might be kind of boring. It was written in 1890, which obviously means that the writing style is very different than books that were written more recently, and so if you're not really used to that kind of writing it could seem a bit boring.
But, in my opinion, and from what I've read so far, it's a really good book. c:

Edit: Oh, and welcome Strawberry_Rain! ^^

You're welcome! *bows*

yeah, nothing bothers me more than a sappy twilight spinoff... I mean, twilight was bad enough as it is (no offense fans), but the whole "vampire romance" thing has gone a liiiiiitle too far if you ask me. oh, and if you're going to read the book thief, I just want to warn you it has some language in it. :/ don't know if that matters or not, but it's really an outstanding book.

The Clockwork Three is absolutely marvelous!

Christopher Paolini hasn't been writing fast enough! Lol

And no, I haven't read Sapphique. I think I'm gonna get it for my Kindle soon, though =)
