Re: What is the most disturbing book you've ever read
I find a number of books disturbing but in different ways. Olivia, I guess I want to know why you find each of the books you mentioned disturbing. (Feel free to ignore the request if you don't feel like answering.) . I don't mind answering : ) "The Flowers in the Attic" books were disturb...

What is the most disturbing book you've ever read
For me it would probably be the "Flowers in the Attic" series by V.C. Andrew. That whole series was extremely disturbing. I also really hate what I call "what may come..." books. You know like "1984" by George Orwell, "Brave New World" by Aulous Huxley, and ev...

Re: The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy; chapters 1-5
Mary Tulip: Does anyone have a favourite section in chapters 1 to 5? I think mine is in the introduction, but it is one of my favourites: Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the Western Spiral arm of the galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun. Orbiting this at a dista...

Re: The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy; chapters 6-10
Mary that is awesome! I wish I did cool stuff like that. *sigh* I'm such a bore. :) So far for me anyway, the Vogons have been the most interesting characters. Can imagine poetry that's so bad it could kill you? How fantastic is that? I can't decide if I like Ford or not. At times he seems really in...

Re: The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy; chapters 1-5
Excellent points being made here. There should be a lot of synergy between other British television shows as he did some writing and made minor appearances on Monty Python and did writing for Dr. Who. He also described himself as a 'radical atheist', so that shouldn't be surprising, either. See htt...

Re: The Hook
I really like the opening lines for The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern: "The circus arrives without warning. No announcements precede it. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Within the black-and-white striped canvas tents is an utterly unique experience full of breathtaking amazeme...

Re: What Made Today Good
Thanks Cattleman! He's doing very well. He's the cutest baby ever! (Okay so I might be a little biased.) :D Lol. I've spent way to much money this week. The computer was necessary though. My old lap top had crashed and I was having to use a desktop, which I hate doing. The only problem with the Dom ...
