Oops, I forgot the week was already finished. Science-fiction is good.I'm currently watching Harry Potter and the Deadly Hollows on tv. They are a lot of things I forgot, I keep asking my sister dozens of questions lol.(view spoiler) Anyway they sure gave a lot of HP this year :)
I read somewhere that JK. Rowling signed a contract for spin-off movies?

I put it under a spoiler now. I always assume that everyone read or watched it. I'm so sorry Danielle! Normally I'm not a spoilsport I swear. Do you plan to join the BR for HP?

I think she said she didn't like it. I might be wrong and mistaken her with somebody else. Been going through threads and have no idea who said what anymore.
Sorry Danielle if I'm wrong!

No worries, I doubt I'd remember if I read them.
Prob not on BR. They starting early and I'm not up for reading it then.
I'm doing LotR and WoT, which I'm looking forward too.
*ashamed*I'm thinking about using my 'powers' and delete my previous post. So nobody knows I'm talking nonsense.
❀Tea❀ wrote: "Yep. I heard they are making movies based on 'library' books: Fantastic Beasts, Quidditch Through the..."Thanks Tea, I was a bit confused. I never read the other books you mentioned. I guess I will have to add them now before the movies come out :)

Phew ok, I recently sold my copy of LotR so now I can read it in English on the ereader. I will join you depending on the date. I heard a lot about WoT, I might join in but I need to check the date in the BR threads.
I will probably join you for BR Mortal Danger but I need to read the first one first.

WoT is staring November 21, hope you'll join.
Haven't set date yet for LotR, I can read them anytime. Just seeing when Tea (and others) wants to start.
Hope you join in for Mortal Danger. I read the first one about 2 or 3 years ago. I'm gonna skim first one to refresh memory.

Sounds good.
✼Danielle wrote: "Haven't set date yet for LotR, I can read them anytime. Just seeing when Tea (and others) wants to start. "I think few others said they'd join us if we read it in December or later, so I was thinking starting it in December. Somewhere around movie coming out? November is pretty full with BRs already.
Have you read The Silmarillion? I also have that one waiting on reader. Although I'm really considering going to library and borrowing it in Croatian (*shudders*) for first-time reading.
✼Danielle wrote: "Sounds good."Let me know when you're ready.
I know someone said she'd like to read it later than set date, but I'm not sure if she changed her mind.
December is good for LotRNo I haven't read The Silmarillion, looks interesting though. Will have to add it to read.
Will do on HP.

*giggles* more like the other way around.
❀Tea❀ wrote: "Wow! 31 books!

Yes, I like finding series that are quick and fun reads to read in between other books
❀Tea❀ wrote: "BTW I've read first of those assassin shifters and have question for you. Where are shifters?! "
They not in first few books, but they do come in
Come to think of it, they may be in second book.
✼Danielle wrote: "Hey Tea, would you read The Silmarillion before or after LofR?"Not sure. I'd rather go after since it's first time and I'm not sure how long it'll take me. I remember struggling with LotR when I read them first time in English even if I read them before. And Hurin was killing me.
Do you even have free slot before LotR? :P

Ok. Yes I got free time. I haven't signed upto a lot. I can understand struggling with LotR. I remember reading for the first time when I was about 14. They were my first big fantasy book, took me a long time to get through.
✼Danielle wrote: "Ok. Yes I got free time. I haven't signed upto a lot. "Maybe if we start now (over the weekend). I know I'll finish it after start but not so sure about you. :P
I did plan to sneak couple of BRs (keeping eye on that thread is killing me ☺) and knowing I won't be reading Tolkien all day (I'd probably need breaks) I could do it. I think.

Yes, starting weekend is good. It will be a finish after start for me too. I'll reading around other books.
That BR thread is a killer, I tried following it and got so lost. I am doing a few others.
