Looking forward to the new Harry Potter then? Won't be the same without old whatshisname but maybe we'll be in for a surprise
also, I remember getting Yukio Mishima's The Sailor who Fell from Grace with the Sea and being more than a little bit pissed off after I read it when I realised that the blurb on the back of the book had given away absolutely everything right down to the last sentence.
cannot wait. if anywhere opens at midnight to sell it, i'll be there and staying up all night to read it. and old whatshisname had to die, really.
why on earth do they do that? annoying.
I think the lesson here is people should be reading better books.
I have not and will not read any of those books
The Shadow of the Wind is a very interesting and enjoyable read.
Some of these books may be the classics of the future.
p.s. Anyone like a copy of The Da Vinci Code? Unopened? I just had no interest whatsoever. I was given it - free - with my mobile phone
If it's a first edition it's worth a couple of grand
The first time I read the fellowsip of the ring it was a frst edition - didnt realise it at the time - worth about 100K
A Prayer For Owen Meany should be at the top of that list.
FACT.
I'm always too stingy to but hardbacks. I always figure they are bad value and a pain in the arse to try and read in bed as well.
Sometimes though it would be nice to have a nicer to have a little library of hardbacks rather than the mountains of paperbacks I accumulate now.
