I don't know if I'd say I like the book or film better; the movie is nothing like the book, but they're both awesome in their own right.

Dogstar was amazing, too. It's just... a celestial being in a dog's body is an amazing twist. I mean, it's not like LOL GOD in a terrier, it's just... unique. -doesn't want to spoil anything-

The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams has to be the greatest book/series i have ever read. My only problem with it, is the ending of the series. I can't stand it. Or endings like it. If you wanna know what happens PM me.

Wheel of Time series is awesome if you can read nearly 10,000 pages.

I finished Stephen King's Misery yesterday. I had seen the movie thrice, so I figured I may as well read the book... and my Uncle Larry, who reads SK books and then watches the movies, said he had to put down the book a couple of times while reading it.

It wasn't that bad, really, up until the end. o_o I had to put the book down after ___ happened, then the thumb incident and lawnmower. -shudders- Getting to sleep after reading that was... fun.

I'm going to read Cujo next, I never watched the movie, and it's on the banned books list... so I want to read and then watch the movie.

I just finised a book called Hangman's curse, it is really good, I also finished a book from the series The Five Ancestors by Jeff Stone, the book was called tiger, which is the first in the series, I liked it, so now I am reading the second one which is monkey. its pretty good so far.

Fishalicious

Oh, I've read part of that series! I'm not sure which book I left off on, though... I think the third one, Snake.

JDog

Yea, Snake is the third one, I haven't gotten to that one yet, you should check out Tiger, it is really good.

Fishalicious

...I read Tiger. And Monkey. And Snake. o_o I just need to read Crane and that other one, and if I'm not mistaken, he's coming out with the ones from the other side. I liked Leopard, his style was cool.

JDog

yea, I heard about that, not sure when though, but yea anyways, has anyone read Hangman's Curse or nightmare accedemy? both good books. I like that author, I hope he makes a new book soon, those too were really good. :D

I kepp trying to read Conrad's Heart Of Darkness but I can't get into it.
It's been sitting on my bed side table since Christmas..

So instead I'm reading The Truth by Terry Pratchett. The Discworld novels are great, they make me laugh.

JDog

Anyone here read eragon? I have, it is really good. different then the movie, alot different actually, lol

Bboy94

Yeah, it was really good. Much better and less cliched than the movie.

After I'm done reading this series of Richard Nixon biographies(don't ask), I might read the Bourne Identity series.

JDog

I want to see the last movies, but yea, the movies were good, so the books of that series are probably good too, I am almost finished with the book monkey, lol, only like 30 or 40 so more pages to go. :D

Loved the movie. I'll have to read those books though ???

My real Poison team in BW2. They all have perfect natures and EV's. I went the extra distance and bred the right IV's into them. Come at me bro.
