Haha. It's like hating Philip Pullman because his books sort of reflect his atheism, isn't it?

Sort of, yes. I did like OSC before until I saw an interview and article about his latest whereabouts. Nakakainis lang siya. He even say things about The Hunger Games without reading it.
Rawr. Where the heck will I find it! Charles (flipreads) linked it up on Twitter before and I lost it lol
Haha. Been hearing a lot about Card's negative attitude, though. But hey, aren't his books I'm reading and not his personal opinion? So kebs lang! Bwahaha
I KNOW BUT I think there's one book of his has a touch of his negative views. Anyway, I still like his Ender's books.
You know, as long as this said book be touched by his personal stand without smudging the entertainment value and sensibility of the intended book's message, I will still toss my coin for it. :)

If anyone wants to discuss a book and mention spoilers, better to open a thread under "Specific Books (Non-TFG 100)" and freely discuss the book there. Those who do not want to be spoiled, avoid that thread.
KD and Helder: Tricia and Rollie are talking about the author, not the book. where's the spoiler there?
I never actually paid much attention to Harry Potter books, but then I thought it was nice to read it because it was made into a movie. At the end, I love it a lot. I am now a fan of Harry Potter and J.K. Rowling :))

and thanks Mr. KD now i know what thread to avoid hehe
Tricia: Nope. Haha.Helder: I don't even like spoilers.
Maria: Haha. Tama! Why would spoil the book that we both love? :)

At the end, I..."I also want to read those Harry Potter books (now that the hype is so low) not only because they were made into movies, but I think they will become enduring children's classics.
@Noelle: I'm currently in the middle of the series! Na-stuck ako sa book5 kasi pinapagalitan ako pag nagbabasa ako ng Harry Potter! Buhay pa din sa witchcraft-is-devil issue sa pamilya namin LOL
