i was reading the seven deadly sins series

lust= title says it all xd

romeo and juliet in school xD
We finished Romeo and Juliet and are writing an essay on it. I'm anti-Romeo..What are your views on it?
why are you anti-romeo? o.0
lmao, i had to play romeo when we read it outloud xd kinda difficult to read with the medieval dialect sweatdrop

my views? hmm....i havent finished it yet, but the ending was rather tragic crying
I had to read Juliet's lines once.. rofl Cathy wanted to be Romeo and we were reading In a group. I am anti-Romeo because he's a murderer, he kills Tybalt and doesn't think of Juliet, he decides to marry Juliet in a few hours, and he commits suicide even though he is young, and he could meet someone else. He is also way to dramtic. It pisses me off...I think the plot is weak overall..So ya, objections?

Im hoping that Dan Brown is going to come out with another RObert Langdon Book. I think that i liked Angels and Demons Better then the Da VInci Code. I need to see the Movie of the Da VInci Code as well. But i am absolutly in love with Robert Langdon. I also think that if he does write another one that Vittoria should come back because frankly Vittoria was ten times cooler then Sophie. Angels and Demons makes me want to go to Vatican City really bad.

I loved Angels and Demons! I haven't read the Da Vinci Code yet but I'm getting to it. I really want to go to Vatican too.

Maybe, but it still was silly revenge. Tybalt would of been brought to Justice if he weren't killed. And yes, he didn't want to live without Juliet. That's why he commit suicide. And it was stupid.

lol, Romeo was totally fickle. He loved that other chick until he met Juliet and I bet he'd have moved on pretty quick too. The real tragedy would have been if they lived, being married.

I read the end of the Series of unfortunate events...Damn, it's really confusing and there really is no end.

Catch-22 and Fahrenheit 451 are, like, my favourite books. Catch-22 because it's depressingly hilarious without being black humour, and Fahrenheit 451 because the prose is dense without being weighty, its points are sharp and it ends on a hopeful as opposed to a "we're all screwed" note (as opposed to, say, Nineteen Eighty-Four or Brave New World).

The Wheel of Time series and The Sword of Truth series. Read them. Love them.


I don't know which book you're on in The Wheel of Time (aka WoT), but I'm currently waiting for the last book, and I don't know whether to be happy, sad, or angry. No doubt, the idea behind the series was great, but then Robert Jordan began to get a bit free... And then you have random characters who get more time in the novel than the main characters. Oh, not to mention that all the females are so damn stereotypical that mostly all readers are offended. Book 11 set things back on track, and apparently book 12 will "end" things... Rumour is it (book 12 that is) might be a tome (1000-2000 pages). And Robert Jordan has some disease, could be life threatening I think… Which is why his editors are urging him to be “efficient”.

Nonetheless, I like the series. mrgreen

The Sword of Truth is a series I think I need to get into. I've heard good stuff about it, so, that's on my list.

Not really. Do you read Artemis Fowl or Lord of the Rings?
lol i think i got thorugh 1 page of lord of the rings and put the book down... not sure where it is now. and I havent read Artemis Fowl. my friend said it was good though


The Lord of the Rings books suffered from being too descriptive. J. R. R. Tolkein is a good man, but the books made me eyes burn and my brain numb. The movies though, were top notch.

The Artemis Fowl books are pretty neat, though I've stopped reading them... I did see the next book in the series in my school library, so I'll move onto that one pretty quick. >_>

I’m on the 7th book of the Pendragon series but I haven’t been reading it:/


I love Pendragon. I don't know why, but there's something about the series and the villain especially, that chills me. Unfortunately, I stopped at book 5. Haven't found the other books yet... ><

Gah, those were some late replies, but I got through them. ^^

As for some great reads:


The Lathe of Heaven
by Ursula K. Le Guin. One man’s dreams has the power to affect the real world, making the stuff of his imagination reality—often times, an unsettling one. Another man’s ambition grows so much that he wishes to wield this god-like power—with terrifying results. This book is top notch. You won’t be disappointed. Le Guin knows what makes humans human. The porse is direct yet profound. Coolness factor of I don't know how much. Try The Dispossessed, another book of hers, if you want writing at its ebst. Deep book, but easy to swallow. Makes other authors look stale.

Phantoms by Dean Koontz. You like scary? You like being afraid to turn the page? Then this book is for you. Evil has never been so absolute, so complete, as in this book. Might start off a bit slow, but picks up speed.

Misery by Stephen King. Brings a whole new meaning to “I’m your #1 fan”. It’s gruesome, unbelievably so, and relentless. Stephen King, I believe, was created in Mordor, or someplace equally twisted. Good man. Try Pet Sematary or Desperation, Cell, The Stand, or his Dark Tower series for some other good reads.

The Ancient by Muriel Grey. This is not a book for young ones. Its is creepy. It is scary. It is cool.

(Phantoms, Misery, and The Ancient contain material not suitable for young readers. You’ve been warned.)

Any book by Orson Scott Card. Gotta love him. He knows how to write.

Currently reading: Whispers by Dean Koontz… Not impressed. Pretty boring actually. And I’m halfway through the book… Whee… >_>

I'm also waiting for the next book. Both series are similar in so many ways I get them confused sometimes. Like the main male characters are Rand and Richard... Both have MAJOR lady issues... They both have HORRID things happen to them, they both have "magic", they're both a sort of reluctant hero, they both kick a**. biggrin
