[font=comic sans ms]Ah, look, kids, a topic about BOOKS. Oooooh, scary!

Anyway, I tend to read a lot, but I really liked The Shining, Fahrenheit 451, and I, Robot. Anyone else have some favorites out there?

Actually, I wouldn\'t be surprised if nobody posts in this topic. It seems people have no time to read anymore, which is a big freaking shame...

I hope we don\'t turn out like something along the lines of Fahreinheit 451. No books....the idea makes me shiver.[/font]

EDIT: sorry for screwing up the flavour text. >.< I was holding my nephew. He likes to push buttons.

Um, yer sorry. I should start reading books, i hardly read but i think i don\'t need to. I read about a page and then i get irritated. I\'m already intelligent so i\'m not that bothered.

ok...a..it would be shonen jump #1-#5 if that counts:D

Heheh. I have a rather long list of books I like...

Mostly romantic/mysteries and really good fantasy books like LOTR and the hobbit.
I also read Sci-Fi. ^^;

I read this book called Sabriel one time, and I swear, I loved that book.
To iluvudrcossack- Please use GRAMMAR.

My favorite book was Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. I\'ve read all the Harry Potter books, and I\'ve got the fifth pre-ordered. My favorite type of book is fantasy.

We are alike,I have read all the Harry Potter books,and I want the fifth one so badly,although I don\'t have it pre-ordered,I\'ll beat everyone for a copy of it.

Huh? what the hell is a book?:conf:

My favorite book would have to be O\' Pioneer, and my favorite types of books are Sci-Fi, horror, and comedy.

Historic
Funny*not joke book\'s ><*
Many many comic\'s.
SciFi.
^ What i like.

So meh..

[font=comic sans ms]Wow, this topic got.....12 more posts than I expected! Cool!

I prefer Sci-Fi, Mystery, and Horror for my reading material. Nothing like curling up with a good copy of The Shining in a dark room....you can almost hear the scary music....

Factoid: Relos is actually a person from one of my own Sci-Fi stories. Nothing really special, I know....just more trivia to rot yer brains with. :D[/font]

Edit: Ach, the damn tags....

Apparently its a thing made out of card or leather and the inside is made of paper. It contains information on anything.

i like most manga..... if that counts:P

The best book I ever read was \"Red Dragon\" by Thomas Harris because it has everything a book should have.:eek:

If manga counts I like Ranma1/2, if ti doesn\'t than I\'d say Harry Potter

I read two books called Stormbreaker and Point Blank by: Anthony Horowitz that I like very much. Right now, I\'m reading The Transall Saga by: Gary Paulsen.

I read ummm..Alien and Predator books..but that shoulda been a duh right there. Jurassic Park was pretty good..Dracula, haven\'t finished yet but it\'s good too. I\'ll read anything that deals with characters I like I guess.. *wants to get Venom and Carnage books..* XD Ooo, wonder if they have Spawn books...

[font=comic sans ms]Yeah, I think I saw some comics, Hollow, but no books.....oh wel, that\'s what fanfiction is for, riiiight?

However, I do not keep track of most comic book heroes.....I harldy read any comics anyway, and when I do, they\'re years upon YEARS old.

Oh yeah, I just finished the Shining! Great book, I highly rcommend it![/font]

EDIT: Stupid-ass-bitching tags....

AAHH!! *runs around screaming*

More seriously though, I enjoy reading I\'m currently getting through the Lord of the Rings. [/quote]So am I! I need to read more, though, if I want to get it finished!:lol:

I prefer \"war and peace\"...
*looks around at people thinking I\'m weird*
Um... yeah... it took me like a year and 1/2 just to get through that thing though. -.-

My favorite books are the Robotech series. I like almost all 21 of them (I don\'t like book #20- The Masters\' Gambit) :cool:

All the star Wars novels I\'ve read are great too. So is LotR (which I did finish, along with The Silmarillion).

I started reading the Tom Clancey novel: Net Force. It\'s awesome! The first two chapters are EXPLOSIVE, they\'re awesome!

More seriously though, I enjoy reading I\'m currently getting through the Lord of the Rings. [/quote]sweet doc...:) I just finished \"The Lord Of The Rings The Return Of The King!\" Also, i think that\'s the best book i ever read!:eek:

I tried to read the Hobbit, but I just got bored with it. Needs explosions, lot of explosions!:devil:

[font=comic sans ms]And you need brains. Lost and lots of brains.

The Hobbit was a really good book from a really good author.....How can you say it needs explosions? what it may need is more of an adventure element and maybe some magic, but other than that, it\'s a beautiful book.

Besides, I think it takes place in...oh, what is it.....oh yeah...MIDDLE EARTH. That means about 1000 A.D., you stupid. Gunpowder didn\'t even come around as an offesive weapon until about 1600 A.D. So there, you stuupid. :lol:[/font]

_Think_.........._tought_I think the best I\'ve ever read is the ......The lord of the rings.(all three in one book!)It was cool:cool:.

I thoght it was alright. It did have magic and swords and stuff, but I just lost intrest in it. I dunno why I just did. As for the brains thing, I think your right, but I like explosions.
