October 19, 200619 yr Wonderboys by Michael Chabon. I love the movie and a couple of days ago I saw the original novel in a shop and decided I'd read it... And it's actually great. I mean, the movie is awesome and so is the novel. I'm just in love with the whole story (though the movie wouldn't be half as attractive without Tobey Maguire... Jeez... Errm yeah).

October 27, 200619 yr just finished "Holes" by Louis Sacher. we had to read it in english class and i've gotta say it's a really nice book. yeah, i enjoyed reading it. it's a very tangled story... and great material to learn with. I've read that one too! In finnish though. But i liked it very much. There's a movie of the book, isn't there? I guess the movie is a comedy..and the book sure wasn't..i've never wanted to watch the movie just because i know it's much worse than the book... And yah, i almost forgot..i'm reading Billy Elliot by Melvin Burgess. I bought it from London and it's in english
October 27, 200619 yr Holes! I haven't read that in so long! :stunned: I never saw the movie, my brother liked it though
October 28, 200619 yr I love that movie...(love tobey too...but anyway moving on lol;) )...so have you read the whole book yet' date=' is it any better than the movie?[/quote'] Yep, I have read it, it's very easy and nice to read. I totally loved the book but I can't really choose between the book and the movie 'cause both are awesome. Besides, the movie is very close to the orginal book 'cause Chabon wrote a scenario by himself... And of course, my choice wouldn't be fair anyway since I'm crazy about Tobey Maguire :anxious:
October 28, 200619 yr I've started re-reading Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series. Have just got into the third one Voyager. Am thoroughly enjoying the re-read.

October 28, 200619 yr Zora Neale Hurston-Their Eyes Were Watching God other than the insane ebonics dialogue, it's a good story. but you have to get past the crazy ebonics first.
