193453 VERY TRUE. ALSO, I FIND SINCE THERE ARE SO MANY EDITIONS OF A BOOK, I CAN NEVER FIND THE ONE I READ, SO WHO IS TO SAY ANY ONE IS BETTER THAN ANOTHER (EXTRA COMMENTARY AND COMPOSITION IN EACH WORK, YOU KNOW)!?!

3166 i never even noticed that before. when i compared us it said 99%. the one thing i don't like about this site is having fifty editions of the same book...it makes it difficult to find whose read what.

207519 I did the "compare" thing and got 100%! mostly due to the Wheel of Time series

207519 and about your "about me" section. it reminds me of the bill hicks bit:

"so I was at a waffle house-I'm not proud of it but I was hungry and it was late. I'm sitting there drinking coffee and reading a book. the waitress walks up and says 'what ya reading for?'...and she stumped me. I've never been asked 'what am I reading for' so I said 'for a lot of reasons, but I guess the main one is so I don't end up as a fucking waffle waitress!' the gut in the next booth stood up and said 'looks like we got ourselves a reader'"

anyway, enough of that..you need to hear it if you haven't already
