Oh, okay, sorry!

why?"

Eh, The Hobbit??? Ugh, I hated MOST of it. The only part i actually relatively enjoyed was the chapter Ridles in the Dark.

lol wat part was that?

Allison wrote: "lol wat part was that?"

Um, it was when Bilbo was stuck in The Mines of Moria and he met golem. He was playing a game of ridles with golem for some reason I can't remeber.

If you go back to the list there's a spot that says,
" Find/Add books to list" Then underneath it there's a place to type the title of the author or book and then hit the search button.

oh yeah i remember that, it was weird.

Brittany wrote: "you're also Mormon, Stephanie? wow, that's kind of cool. I guess it's just a small, small world out there, huh?
i'm serious when i say this, about once every two weeks i find out that somebody is ..."

Yeah, I am, I was so excited when I found out I wasn't the only mormon on this discussion bored...I guess you call it. Lol, yeah it's a small world after all.

i wish you luck and a better experiance than mine with it. Um, I'm in a reading phase, per-say, but I'm not really in a you know dieing to read a book phase right now. If only I was like that, I mean I go to church and young womens and but I'm not so good at reading The Book of Mormon every day. I mean I try, it's probably not my best but I try to read it every day but I'm not so good at it...

Good for you, Yanesis.
I read all of the Twilight books.
Yes, they are awesome. =)

That is very good, Cindy.
See, Twilight does help non-readers! ;)

I still don't get the whole 'mormon' thing... =\

Samia wrote: "I still don't get the whole 'mormon' thing... =\"

All right well...We're called mormons by some people but the full title of our church is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints. Have you ever heard of them?

No, I haven't heard of them.
Is mormon a christian thing?
Because, i've never heard of it. =/

Brittany wrote: "in the past i've done terribly with it, but i guess things change.
so i guess at least you understand why i hate twilight. and stephenie meyer."

well, i've only read the first three so not exactly...and i haven't seen many pics of Stephenie Meyer so...yeah.

Samia wrote: "No, I haven't heard of them.

Well, yes we are christians.

This is weird! What is the point???

MICHAEL wrote: "This is a weird list, do i just add the books I'm planning on reading?"

yea you do.

twilight sucks and the movie looks so bad
noobs

OMG I HAVE A SUPPORTER!!!!!!
SICK MAN! lol

Well, I am a Christian too, Stephanie.
But, i've never heard of mormon. =/

The point is to talk about books, Hannah.

Jack, we don't talk bad about Twilight on here.

yeah the last time u guys did that it turned into a big fight! lol

Where is Vince Flynn on this list? Or Helen hoover Santmeyer(Ladies of the Club)? Or Jill Conner Browne(Sweet Potato Queen's Book of Love) or Cecilia Ahern? Or kobo Abi(Woman in the Dunes) Or HP Lovecraft-for those who think they like the seriously scary?

there not on the list
idk who made it but they did leave off some pretty sweet authors like Tamora Pierce for instance.:(

I think the list is populated by our adding books and authors to it.
Q-who is Tamora Pierce?

Samia wrote: "Well, I am a Christian too, Stephanie.

Well, that's cool! If you ever wanted to learn more I know some librarys have The Book of Mormon in them you could rent it and then read it.

Hannah wrote: "This is weird! What is the point???"

What do you mean? What's weird?

Allison wrote: "yeah the last time u guys did that it turned into a big fight! lol "

yeah, it was kind of sad really...fighting over a book well not even that we were fighting over opinions! Like I said it was really sad. =)

...Have you never heard of Salt Lake City, Utah, the center of the Mormon faith> As I understand, no mention of Salt Lake City is ever made without referencing Mormons.

Are you kidding me? I ..." Obviously, many people like her. I have not read her books but I have been told by many that they love her books. -- it is a matter of taste. Your tastes are different from those that have voted.

Brittany wrote: "If u have any questions, Samia, or anybody else, just ask. I'd be happy to answer."

Me too, I'l answer to the best of my ability.

Brittany wrote: "hey, Nanci, r u a mormon too? if so, that's cool.

hey, Stephanie, if she wants to read the Book of Mormon, then she doesn't have to get it from the library.
I have a pass-a-long card in front o..."

Oh, cool!

Socialism sucks, it leads to communism which also sucks...well, you get what I mean. Besides it doesn't even work either.

Brittany-Not a Mormon. 'A mature' momma. This is not meant as a criticism, simply a point of curiousity - are you under 20 years old? My observations over the years have led me to think that as our world becomes smaller and supposedly more diverse,with more 'opportunities' for information, we are becoming narrower in what is actually being presented in our educational environments...

Stephanie wrote: "Socialism sucks, it leads to communism which also sucks...well, you get what I mean. Besides it doesn't even work either."

i don't think we should talk about religion because some people have VERY different beliefs [me and other peeps:]
idk if ur even talking about religion cuz im atheist.

idk y that posted-
any way basically what im trying to say is talking about religion can offend people and i really don't think u guys want to have this big argument about something that no one agrees on.

Allison wrote: "Stephanie wrote: "Socialism sucks, it leads to communism which also sucks...well, you get what I mean. Besides it doesn't even work either."

Oh, no I wasn't attacking anyone's religion or anything I was just saying I didn't agree with communism or socialism, sorry if I offended anyone, that wasn't my intention!

It can and I don't want a big arguement, I was just answering Samia's questions. I get what you're saying I just think if we're careful and everyone respects each other and other's beliefs that it'd probably be fine and we might be able to learn something from each other, not that I'm going to start talking about religion all the time just if it comes up you know?

I don't mean to offend, attack, ect. anyone!!! And I'm sorry if I have, it was NOT my intention!

u didn't offend me its just it could offend someone reading the conversations and i personaly don't want a big realigious fight to start. but yeah... thats wat i meant :)

Allison wrote: "u didn't offend me its just it could offend someone reading the conversations and i personaly don't want a big realigious fight to start. but yeah... thats wat i meant :) "

Oh, okay well thank you for the concern and everthing! I don't want a fight to start either!

Brittany wrote: "i'm just curious...not to be rude or anything...does anybody in this conversation support Obama? I think i should have asked before i posted that one quote and the story about the college professor..."

Brittany-Your comment should not be taken as political. One can support a person, without supporting their policies. In the United States, at this time, our first amendment rights of free speech are guaranteed to all, not merely those who agree with current policies. "All that is necessary for Evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing" An informed, active population cannot become enslaved.
At the present, we are an unimformed people.

Umm...thanks for the suggestion of the mormon books in the library thing, Stepanie, but i think i'm good for now! ;)

Yeah, i don't find this list wierd.
I think it's cool to discuss books with people you don't know at all...
It's sort of like a book club, without ever seeing the people... =D
