Angus (angusmiranda) | 4337 comments Mabait si Po, may stalker tendencies lang, hehehe. Sinusuportahan nga niya yung Nobel Project ko eh, gusto pa niya i-announce ko rito, eh kaso personal project ko lang iyon.

At kapag nag-out of town iyan, itetext ako kung anong book ang gusto kong ipahanap sa Book Sale. Saan ka pa??

Go! ako sa Snow, Good Earth, The Black Book, My Name is Red...nakabili na ako niyan.

@Kuya Doni-Thanks! kaka-touch naman sa inyo at sa TFG lang naman kasi ako humuhugot ng lakas, kasi kapag kasama ko kayo masaya! at marami akong nalalaman lalo na sa books.

@Angus-tagal ko na rin gustong mag-kolekta ng mga Nobel at Pultzer.

@Emir at Kwesi- masaya kasi kayo kasama at marami akong nakukuhang ideas sa inyo.

message 1013: by Cherryl (new)

Cherryl (liritz) Hi, I'm new here and I'm just curious what does a reading buddy do?


message 1014: by K.D. (new)

K.D. Absolutely (oldkd) | 6065 comments Cherry honey, there is a thread entitled "Management: Buddy Reading" (or something like that).

Anyway, to state it simply, reading with someone at the same time. Then you put your daily thoughts and discuss with that someone or even with eavesdroppers.

message 1022: by Gail (new)

Gail (nighting-gail) | 26 comments I'm looking into reading the following since I've just finished my John Green. Anyone care to join me read (or re-read) them?

American Gods by Neil Gaiman Lord of the Flies by William Golding The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Hitchhiker's Guide, #1) by Douglas Adams Ender's Game (Ender's Saga, #1) by Orson Scott Card

Of course, I'm not all that excited about starting any of them since I fear I'll either not get them or just not get them, so I might be negotiated (oh yes, I used this word) into reading something else.


message 1023: by Rollie (new)

Rollie (zheick) | 2096 comments Ender's Game! Lurvv it! Can assure you that you won't regret reading it. :D


message 1024: by Gail (new)

Gail (nighting-gail) | 26 comments I haven't really read it yet. I just know, if my memory serves me right, that one of the female protagonists' name is Peeta...and I mainly just figured that out during a discussion of Hunger Games with a friend. XD


message 1025: by Rollie (new)

Rollie (zheick) | 2096 comments LOL! Sorry but I'm sure it's Petra. :D
