Chi-Chi Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Hmm, really? I've always been intrigued by that term, "sucks". How is "sucks" different from "blows"? I mean, if a book sucks, can it also blow? Hehehe..... Seriously, did you enjoy the first 4 of the series? fave ko book 1 and 3 and 4hehe the bets 1 kasi un ung unang una na nibukas ng mundoni harry next un 4 kasi exciting kasi competition un 3 kasi may godfather sha ( i hate the movie tho) Quote Link to comment
kanto-terrorist Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 i love business strategy and leadership books, so far sun tzu's art of war and dick marcinko's leadership secret of rogue warrior are the books im reading these days. Quote Link to comment

I haven't read a single Harry Potter book, yet. Currently don't have the inclination to, though that may change in the future. Neither have I watched any of the movies. Well, except the parts I see while channel surfing when it is being shown on HBO. I'll take your word for it. Hehehe.... Quote Link to comment
Wyld Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Hahaha! Well, I just assumed from your nick.... Hehehe..... Hmm, I've seen a trailer of that movie. Looks interesting, but as I've said, I'm almost totally into sci-fi/fantasy right now. Good for you, though. Are you enjoying the book? tut tut Fahfrd assumptions never did anyone any good! I liked Chevalier's book. It's makin me want to go out and buy her other three or four books... After that I also finished Digital Fortress by Dan Brown... not bad at all. I am currently reading a Jeffrey Deaver book ... galing! :cool: Quote Link to comment

Victor Davion Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 Hahaha! Sure, I'm willing to lend books that I've already read. As long as you take care of them. I usually wrap them in plastic and store them in a closet. (I know, I know, I'm weird that way. ) I seriously doubt, though, if I have any Baen books which you don't have. Knowing that you are a subsriber to Baen e-books. I'll have a look at my closet and come up with a list of all the Baen books I have. I'm warning you though, that they're not that many. I'm not really loyal to a particular publisher. Well, except probably TSR. Hehehe..... Wow! Thanks Wulfie! Although I do perfer receiving books via e-copies instead of borrowing the dead tree versions. Less chance of failing to return them and developing a blood feud along the way. Quote Link to comment

Less chance of failing to return them and developing a blood feud along the way. Hahaha! I like that, "dead tree version". As for me though, I prefer reading books on paper. I feel wierd reading off a computer screen. I see your point though. But no problem, I seldom declare a blood feud. Hehehe.... Quote Link to comment
Wyld Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 Hahaha! Sabi nga nila eh, "Lahat ng AKALA ay mali".

They usually have great books for a fraction of their original price. Quote Link to comment
Wyld Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 Fahfrd did go to the 50/75% off books... but Chevalier is relatively new and her books arent in the 2nd hand bkstores yet. i did get some Dean Koontz books there ... to pass the time Quote Link to comment
