It's fun to wait 20 years and then reread a book. Totally different story. :D

Finished my Silmarillion re-read.
Now started a HP re-read.
the dark tower 4 wizard and glass
Im going to read me sooome E.A. Poe!!!:rock:
[quote=Heather19;340496] I actually got a copy of his complete collection for christmas. I was going to start going thru it in between other books. It's been so long since I've read his stuff.QUOTE]
That is exactly what I do. After I finish a novel, I spend a few nights reading Poe stories. :)
I finished listening to The Notebook today. I think this is one of the rare occurrences where I much prefer the movie to the book. I honestly didn't really care for the book all that much.
I am rereading Pet Sematary.
I am also rereading Poe's complete works.
Since New Year's so far I have read
Narrative of A Gordon Pym
Goldbug
Murders in the Rue Morgue
Currently: Mystery of Marie Roget.
I am reading the stories in between books too.
Pet Sematary is one of my favorite King novels. I need to do a re-read...
25 times, oh my! That is intense, the most I've probably ever re-read a book is Ender's Game...at like 3 or 4 times. Pretty short stuff. I mean to re-read stuff but have so much more that I want to explore, so I guess it will give me a lot of room for re-reads in the future :)
I could never read a book for the 25th time. So many books, so short a life.
yeah! I've found a lot of what I think look like good books through the forums here from you guys.
and brownings childe (love your quote, I have a similar one, with nastier phrases in my facebook quote section) + what is the avatar from? so creepy, it seems so familiar...it's not dark night right...hmm?
Couldn't wait to read some Poe, so I went with an old favorite Ligeia. I'll probably end up reading a few more tonight before I go back to my other book.
yeah...oh well I thought it was going to be from a movie or something. I don't listen to either band. Funny though because I am reading Duma Key, and the part I just read, King just mentioned Slipknot.
That's one of the more irritating aspects of King's (recent) writing. I suppose I didn't notice it in his early works of fiction-either because they were much better, or I didn't feel as close to the temporal pop cultural references-but it's probably one of the reasons I haven't liked most of his recent work. In fact, I think the only King book I've completed since finishing the final, eponymous volume of The Dark Tower is his latest collection of short stories, and even that isn't nearly as good as any of his previous collections.
All the Pretty Horses- Cormac McCarthy
Ethical Writings - Peter Abelard
Cell - SK :orely:
V the second generation
This is probably an idiotic question, but "V" is a book?
:orely:
Just finished Slumdog Millionaire. Loved it.
Picking up where I left off on A Storm of Swords.
