*rolls eyes*

It's a tropical storm, people. Get a grip.

Some folks just ~like~ arguing.

Ophelia makes me think of Hamlet. Maybe it's Shakespeare's fault. He's a dead white guy, let's blame him.

Hey Pip, yup, you'll pick up more. Should be time for third reading soon, I'm rereading most of Discworld at the moment.

I read the first two Artemis Fowl books in that series.

They were, shall we say, different.

My coworker is now reading a series of mystery/fantasy novel titled "Wizard for Hire" Sounds interesting.

Who's the author? I have seem some really good books with that idea. And some really bad ones.

Didn't like Artemis Fowl at all, maybe I'm just too old. Pick up "Guards Guards" by Terry Pratchett (it's a good intro to Discworld) I bet you'll like it. There's only about thirty books in that series so won't take long to catch up ;-)

Oh, yeah, I thought it might be. Tried one of them, it wasn't my thing. Too urban-blah. I was really hoping to like it, too.

PS - bwahaha.... be careful, Discworld is addictive. I'll try to make you a list of which books need to be read before which others later if you like Guards Guards.
