Hikari Aijuntani Dr. Acula Hikari Aijuntani @Acula: I'm very surprised, you nevern struck me at a Peter Pan fan. I love Barrie's work. I love how they did the movie Finding Neverland about how he wrote Peter Pan. Beautiful movie. Havnt seen it all the way through, mostly because I keep getting distracted when I watch it. or when I find it on tv, its right at the end. But yeah. I love Peter Pan. Didnt really like Peter Pan in Scarlet though. Really? What did I strike you as then? Though honestly, I never would have figured you a tolkien fan. Stephanie Meyer or Ann Rice maybe, but not Tolkien. Pleasant suprise though. I personally got lost the first time I read the fellowship of the ring, but loved the Hobbit. The rest of his books, never really got into. Hmmm, I guess if I had to nail down what you struck me as....I guess I'd say Chaucer or Shakespeare. You have this poetic elegance that just strikes me that way. ^_^ Don't feel bad, I got lost when I first started reading Fellowship; once you stick it out through the first 2 chapters though it gets easier. I myself was very annoyed that the first couple of chapters were devoted to a spoon collection, inheiritances, etc. But I think The Hobbit and The Simarillion are still my favorites. My favorite part of the Hobbit is "riddles in the dark"; where Bilbo is having a duel of wits with Gollum. Stephanie Meyer is actually a recent addition to my library. I foudn her on accident and ended up liking her books. I hate Anne Rice's books....I have yet to find one I enjoy. well considereing that I didnt figure out that Merry was a boy and not a girl untill they got to Rivendell, I would say I'm pretty much a failure at that particular book. The two towers I got through much easier thankfully. And thanks. I did enjoy reading Shakespeare in High School. Probably one of the few in my class who did.

Stephanie Meyer is the shiznit!! I love her books, I found twilight in the library and I read the back and it said "yes Edward is a vampire" so I took it xD and I've finished all her books since the start of the year...my friend started after me and has finished them all like 10 times...literally

The only vampires novels I ever really got into was Amelia Atwater-Rhodes series. Good books, The shapeshifter trilogy after the vampire books were ok, but I liked the vampires more.

You should try Mercedes Lackey's "Children of the Night" series and L.A. Banks "Forsaken" series. They're really good.

Ah, I've read her stuff before! I can't really say it's something I'd read over an' over, but it was a fun read. :3

I don't much care for the circle series. I've been reading her tortall books for a long time. I really like fantasy and she is one of the few fantasy writers that uses a strong female I actually like (Yeah, yeah... I know there are other strong females out there in book land... but I dislike their characters)
