Welcome to Gaia! ::

my favorite books are the harry potter series. i absolutely love them i can't get enough of them i just can't srop reading them and rereading them.... but neways other than that i can read just about anything i love to read i read every night before i go to bed otherwise i can't sleep i also write i've written some short stories and other things. i also write poetry. i just love all kinds of written works and writing things i had thought about going to college to become a novelist...but that didn't work out as planned i've always been good at writing

i read Memnoch several years ago, wasn't sure what to make of it. It isn't one of my favourite Anne Rice books, i like the 2nd and 3rd of the vampire chronicles.Also Servant of the bones.

well, if Voldemort was out to kill me I'd be pretty upset too. And he's a teenager who has gone through more then the people at Hogwarts. It could get a bit annoying sometims, but I understood why. What I liked?? hmmm....I guess it was the storyline in general. What was the thing Voldemort was after? And they took that dark arts class in secret. Plus it seemed more dark then the rest of the series. And it's the only book I managed to finish in 1,5 weeks (judging by it's size it says a lot, I mostly take at least a few months with a book half it's size) O__o;; The only thing I didn't like is what happened to Sirius (he's my fav character!) and they didn't bother to explain it. Okay, that happened, but what was that veil about. They came to that conclusion and then there was nothing. (Sorry trying hard not to spoil it for other people) My second favorite is part 3, where he meets his stepdad. And finds out who betrayes his parents. One was my least favorite, although I found it very funny (the first time I read it I laughed a lot) . Doesn't mean I don't like it though.
Either way, can't wait for part 6. xp

As for the Vampire Chronociles....with Memnoch.....it's not so good as the rest of the series. I'm not saying it sucks (I'm just taking so long to read it because I barely have time to read lately), but it's a bit...I don't know...don't know what to think of it. My favorite books of the series would be the first three. In my oppinion they were the most important and the best. I didn't really like Tale of the Body thief either, the pase was too slow, especially in the beginning.
I'm only continueing reading because I want to read The Vampire Armand. He's one of my favorite characters, so I'm curious what happened in his past.

I can't wait for the next Harry Potter!! Though when I do get it I'll probably read it in like a week then I'll get sad that it's over... sweatdrop Well that's what I did with the fifth one... I like read it constantly until it was done, with a couple hours of sleep thrown in there... It took me 4 days xp I just wonder what it's going to be about. The fourth book was my favorite... but I don't really know why. Oh well I'm just waiting for the movies to come out too!! 3nodding

i haven't read any HP books yet, only seen the first film too, i'm a little behind neutral
my Mum will lend me them all when i get around to reminding her though.
i highly recommend re-reading books you enjoyed when you were younger, it's very true that they make more sense to you now! Also childrens books can be great for the feel good factor, as they rarely have anything nasty going on in them, you can get through one in a few hours on a quiet afternoon and it's a very enjoyable experience.
I still have a shelf full of of books that were bought from me from the age of about 8 onwards and i still dust one of occasionally for a nostalgic wallow. Some of mine include..

The Cronicles of Narnia
What Katy Did and What Katy did at School
the Wizard of Oz
Benji
Annie
Swallows and Amazons
The Rescuers

many of these are old and battered but i think that adds to the reading experience biggrin

Wow!!! Not to be rude but you have a different hair style every other day! How can you afford that?

Well to get the free ones all you have to do is delete your avitar and re-create it xd I've been unsettled alot of my time on Gaia, before the Salon opened I changed my hair alot, after it did though I had the Silk haistyle for nearly a year, until they brought out the poses, and with that hairstyle I can't bring my arm forward or there's a patch of hair missing, it made me sad and convinced me to change again, I stuck with the Wildflower look for a little bit, then the Pigtails, and that new one was nice enough but like the Wildflower far, far to commonplace, even among the men! So I'm in limbo again, I hope to find one that will match all my outfits, and look pretty enough at the same time ^.^
