We Quit Cigarettes

[Sapphire Sebright]

Kiki -- the first book has an anime adaptation, but it was originally a novel. There are eight volumes total in the Moribito series, but only the first two have been translated into English.
Edit: Ten books, apparently.

Just watch the movie.

How faithful of an interpretation is it? Does it skip all the neat bits? I bet it does.

That shit is ridiculous. I glaze over like a donut, and skip pages.

Hey. The most beautiful paragraph Tolkien ever wrote (IMO) was about a fireplace. It doesn't have to be plot relevant to be lovely!

Can you please get a picture of this paragraph?

How would I know? I never read the book. It won lots of awards.

I can't get into it at all. I also can't stand the pages of elf song that are not even in a real language.

I don't remember the page number, silly.

It has been many years since I've finished a book that I've started.

You should read The Hot Zone!

"Birds: Their Life, Their Ways, Their World" and "In Search of Schrodinger's Cat". Currently working on "A Beautiful Mind" (a rather overly journalistic, yet interesting, chronicle of the life of a master mathematician) and starting on a book detailing the theory of relativity next.

Those sound like big VCI books. I am sporadically reading Alberts' cell biology textbook, and a few other science books, mainly biology.

I think it was when the Fellowship was attempting to cross the Misty Mountains.
