Hey Jackie! I'm not sure why I didn't enjoy the Tudors more, but yeah...guess HC just wasn't enough to keep me interested. :(I'm still glad I am watching it though, I'll probably still get the next disk.
well, Elizabeth Gaskell wrote one of the most romantic stories I've ever read and couldn't even write the word "kiss". haha...so I'm not surprised. Bet she wouldn't let her daughter watch The Tudors if she was 40!

watching miss marple online makes me realize I don't only miss having my agatha christie books with me but also watching the agatha christie serie on tv.I planned to go and walk for some hours but it seems that every time I do that it is raining hard. Weather today:3degrees celcius, lots of rain and strong wind...... might be a reading day...but I really want to walk!!!! It is just that it are my exploring walks, not knowing how it will be and what I will see and ten this weather doesn't encourage me. Otherwise I don't mind at all. Like at home in Belgium or Italy I jsut go outisde and walk even in this weather or worse....
okay, going because my boyfriend wants to watch th eonline church service online, so I am going out of the ream or put music on on my mp3. Maybe going to clean.... and then reading!!!!! oh and watching the rest of miss marple on the computer...
Just an update.Allison-I can't really reccomend Ahab's Wife. I made myself finish it, but the end half was pretty much torturous. Sorry. I hope you didn't buy it or anything.
I saw my movie-TWICE!!!! I loved, loved, loved it! I do not care if it was not understandable to those who have not read it. It was like a love letter just to me. The first time I was in silent awe. The second time, I cried at 3 different parts. Billy Cruddup is an amazing actor!
Kandice did you go see your movie? If so how did you like it? Sorry I didn't get back to you till late Friday evening.by the way Allison I am loving Graceling
I just finished Rebel Angels! Now I'm going to do some laundry/dishes/cleaning so I can start TSFT before I have to go to church this evening...
I am almost finished with AGATB. It is a really quick read. Somehow I had missed that it wa YA. Not that they are always quick. I feel like I should buy the second one, but I want to get a few others read, or I will never get my 100 books for the year!
AGATB doesn't come off very YA to me, besides their ages. I haven't done a thing this weekend :P I just cleaned the bathroom and put some laundry away so my husband won't kill me for being lazy.
But seriously....4 books? I don't think I could do that, even without any family here, or any chores to do. That's a ton of reading.
no I won't...it is like 800 pages, and I have to go to a church thingI REALLY hope I don't get so hooked I can't sleep tonight :\
Allison, you're so funny and humble about your speed reading. "It's just 3"...phsshhh that's nothing! LOLHow did you enjoy the first 2 Gemma Doyle's?
It goes pretty quickly once the action starts. I felt like she threw everything including the kitchen sink into these books. Every character had some kind of drama.

She is very humble about her speed reading - for some reason she seems embarrassed about it. I don't know why when we're all jealous!
LOL...Lori, I think most of those post are pics of hot men (well, mostly Henry Cavill).Seriously, I would kill to read that fast. I'm proud of myself if I can fit 100 pages in a day. :)
