BiccyDash NO! I will NEVER EVER read hary potter neutral Good girl 3nodding I was once convinced to read it... didn't get past the first chapter because it sucked. Although, it could be that I've been brainwashed to love LOTR since I was a child... My mum read me the Hobbit when I was 8 and the whole of LOTR after that ^_^ Have read it at least 5 times since then. Anyway, I've just finished reading a most awesome book called The Princess and the Goblin... Yeah I know it's a kids book but it's a bloody good read, plus I really like fantasy but have hardly any in the house sad

If you find LOTR boring, try reading all ten books of the Wheel of Time series. I swear, that series sounds like a fantasy soap opera. sweatdrop

I tried to read LOTR. I really did.
I got Rachel's Tears from the library on Wednesday and I've got to say it's utter bullshit.
But I'm still reading it because I want to see what the kid's parents have to say. stare

I read LOTR so long ago... I would have been around eleven I think, and it took me a whole two weeks to get through them all!!!! scream scream scream It wasn't a bad read though, but I hardly remember much of it because that was about seven years ago... sweatdrop I haven't read it since...
At the moment I'm just reading "The Man Who Killed Boys" by Clifford L. Linedecker... It's pretty much a biography on Gacy (John Wayne Gacy Jr). 3nodding

On the Reading list for the Holidays;
*Legends of the Samural by Hiroaki Sato
*Bushido: The Soul Of Japan by Inazo Nitobe
*The Book of Five Rings by Miyamoto Musashi
*Varied Internet notes on Yagyu Jubei + Musashi

So in other words, a whole lot of s**t that relates to my History Extension assignment. JOY! surprised
