Blast, I wanted The Da Vinci Code.....oh well, off to the library.....

All the books looked like they are interesting reads.I am bummed out 'cause first I couldnt get my copy of the Illiad. and now I am going to be working 12ves 6 days a week for 2-3 weeks it's going to be hard for me to be able to sit down and really get into the book.
but I am gonna try to get the paper back this week and try read it on the fly.

urgh... is it long? cos I am getting a reading list for my english a level on wednesday... 🙁

well here's what I seen...Mass Market Paperback: 512 pages

That's about normal length for me....I have yet to get it, I'm such a procrasitnator 😄

me also...I might have to wait till the weekend.when i do these crazy hours at my job i am pretty much useless 'cause I'm so tired. so I wont be getting started till the weekend.

I'll have a look in the library on saturday, or maybe order it from my bookshop...

that's right, I said MY bookshop... 😉 They know my name, I'm in there so often... 😄 It's a special place, and I am their resident obsessive... although I don't get paid... 🙁

OOOHHHHH! Timline! Greatness! 😄 (Surpresses 4 year old in self and does not jump around in happyness)

ounce you get past the Scan in the hospital and discover something to do with His hands, You will not be able to put the book down.

I'll pick up a copy of Timeline today. I didn't get to see the movie so there are spoilers for me 😉

well, read timeline almost as soon as it got out, cause me dad likes reading his stuff

it was a nice story, but I love history so couldn't agree with a few things or with a few ways he was thinking 😖

okay If I can pull myself away from my computer..I'll go get my copy! 😄

So has anyone read some of this yet? eek it's almost time to post another nomination thread! 😱

I read the Intro and The first chapter (Corazon) so far. Does seems interesting with all the mystery of the Old man, and the Excavations in France. This weekend I'm going to read more about it. I'll be back later when I'm finish. 🙂

the movies supposed to be rubbish, just a big mess

ive i only read one of his books JP2. the raptor scenes where alot better than the movie

*sigh* well tomorrow I will have to get our nomination thread together..one of thse days I'll get my butt in gear and read the books we are suppose to read..I've been so busy& tired I can't see straight.

Yeah but it's really easy to read... I'm on page 45 and I just started a little while ago

quantum foam, makes me roam!

in the end, it IS the intention that you read the book within the month it's selected in, right?
