Pithin, is Intensity sort of slow at the beginning? I want to know if that is Koontz's style.

Well, right now I'm only on page 11, haha yeah I just started. But I found its already a little intense so I'm going to say no.

actually I really liked it, I started reading it at school and now I cant put it down.

I just started Intensity, and I've got to agree. It's so much more addicting than Watchers. I'm at the part with Edgler, and it's so awesome.

the first couple pages were really boring, so i decided instead to just read the chapter summaries on sparknotes lol.
we're on chapter 5, but I think I'll start reading it, because its getting harder to BS my way through class

I hated the Great Gatsby.

Oh I know, I keep trying to read ahead because I realllly want to know what happens. It actually makes my heart race and last night I was kinda freaked like Edgler was going to come in his motorhome and get me..haha not kidding.

I'll probably finish it tomorrow.

I'm not actually reading the bible, idiots. Why would I waste my time with such a poorly written book?

The Big Four - Agatha Christie

Not when you find a good one with interesting perspective.

Generation Green
(basically handbook to being more eco-friendly)

But I dont really agree with all of their ideas, maybe because it was written a couple years ago.

Still overrated.

The Fixer by Bernard Malamud

I'm reading Twilight now!
I LOVE it! (or do I just love Edward Cullen? lol)

-To Kill a Mockingbird- Love that book, but I'm pissed at Harper Lee for only writing one novel.
-Life of Pi- Really good
-Tales of Beetle the Bard

The Praise of Folly - Erasmus
Gargantua - Rabalais
The Illiad - Homer

Benito Cereno- Herman Melville (it sucks)
The Buccaneers- Edith Wharton (it's good)
The Other Boleyn Girl- Phillipa Gregory (I love it but omg this book NEVER ends haha)

It is really good, but I don't get how it can make you believe in God.

I liked to kill a Mockingbird also. Read it freshman year.

Im not currently reading anything(not counting the Bible)...but i want to start a book over break cause i will actually have time to read it, lol

I finished The Adventures of Huckelberry Finn - Mark Twain for school and Wicked: The Life & Times of the Wicked Witch of the West - Gregory Maguire for pleasure. I'm currently reading Son of a Witch - Gregory Maguire. It's the second book in the Wicked series.
