what... are... you... READING

[Lucifer]

shouldn't that have been "who are you banging?"

Objectifying people perhaps....but that is the exact way I read it!

Or in the case of some people, they might bang things....as opposed to people.

percussionists certainly do (speaking as a percussionist myself...)

It's very quick read. His books are usually short, in addition to being superbly written.

i did
i was a bit scared to read it at first
i liked it a lot though
i understand now why sophie told me i reminded her of one of the people
maybe she knew i would read it, i don't know
i liked the book a lot though

I will put White Oleander on my list of books to buy. People here seem able to read books that are really difficult for me to get into. I just haven't got the attention span

[Sophgay]

yay
I am like that too
I find it hard to get into books when I'm depressed even more
That might be why I read the first chapter or so, and then stopped for a couple months lol
When I started reading it again the other day though, I read the rest in a couple days, it is good
Once you get into it though, it's a really good book
I think you will like it if you can keep your attention

I like sci-fi books, Elizabeth Moon is a good writer. But I haven't read much lately either.

[Sophgay]

i didn't read much at all last year
i think i read 2 books
i'm trying to read more now though, in the hope that it will help me stop being depressed
maybe i should stop reading depressing books

Didn't Elizabeth Moon have an autistic protagonist in one of her books?

The Speed of Dark had a few autistic characters in it.
It addressed the curebie question, worth reading I suppose.

I quite enjoyed the book but it had many faults

this was meant to be a modification of the previous post, pressed the wrong button.

that's a major advantage - i couldn't stand much of his literary wanking for long.

It's very seductive, though.
