I have to say that I agree with you about The Historian. I am on page 340 and it has really gotten tedious. It is extremely well-written but it does get bogged down in the characters just looking through old texts.0 -

I read the first one, "The Golden Compass" earlier this year. It was pretty good. I have the second one but haven't gotten to it yet."We're fixed good, lamp-wise."0 -

Ms. haiku, I also started "Reading Like a Writer". It was interesting but I moved on to some fiction. I will get back to it.
Ms. Haiku...if you want, I'll send you my copy of MFL. I'm done with it.This is the greatest band in the world -- Ben Harper0 -

I really like it so far. It puts life into perspective and creates a picture of appreciation as opposed to self-involvement. It's a reminder of the things that are truly important beyond the surface of what we put so much unnecessary energy into on a daily basis. Have you read it?We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -

The risk I took was calculated, but man, am I bad at math - The Mincing Mockingbird0 -
Guns, Germs, and Steel - Jared Diamond....Some very interesting stuff in this book. Mostly a break down of how the wealthiest, most powerful countries got that way in the last 13,000 years of human history.
Lord of the Rings Trilogy - Tolkien....just rereading it
and every once and awhile just to feel uber-smart, I peck through a bit of A Brief Histroy of Timedeep, deep blue of the morning
gets to me every time0 -

Yeah I just finished it over the weekend. I enjoyed it. I agree with what you said. I did have a problem with part of it, but I don't know how far you are into it so I won't tell you. It's nothing shocking just I hate to have books ruined for me."We're fixed good, lamp-wise."0 -
