Laura's made you a FROG!!
French grammar originally perhaps, but absorbed into English.

Nope I got you...just Google'd it now....I had that book TITAN that Sorcery was based upon. DARK soots.
Joe Dever was Lone Wolf and stuff which was kinda fun. But Sorcery was Steve Jackson who was kinda the bollox at such stuff. Titan was the world of Fighting Fantasy for us gamers which was sort of like Dragon Lance for idiots, but fun all the same.
I did like the rpg stuff Fighting Fantasy did.
But back to shit books.
1 Janev Eyre epicly dull and whiny as well as some truly repugnant prejudice.
2 The Kite Flyer. Kid flys kite, gets bummed Afghanistan sucks...now you don't need to bother reading it.
3 Diary of Anne Frank, good book but cliff hangers without sequels suck.
4 How to hide in a hole and avoid being hanged by Sadam Hussein. Paintly badly researched.

An acute? Since when had that been absorbed into English? Just because it's de rigeuer doesn;t make it French, my friend...
Jane Eyre is a great book. An anti-heroine who doesn't get punished and it was considered incrediably controversial, immoral and racey in its time.

But that time has come and gone. A dull misery of a character who is entirely at the mercy of others.

That's pride and terminators.

Quote: Rob H @ August 30 2009, 10:06 PM BSTMy girlfriend's nan must NEVER learn that I'm a Catholic. She didn't go to her first grandchild's Christening because it was a Catholic ceremony.
My new copy of an illustrated Da Vinci Code was sitting on the kitchen table and my 90 year old very very Catholic grandmother walks by picks it up. I cringed like I was a kid getting caught with a porno. Lucky for me she had never heard of the book and instead enjoyed leafing through the book and looking at all the pictures of Cathedrals and religious artwork.
It's not like she would have yelled at me or anything but it probably would have probably have made her sad.

Wsn't that with Pheoebe, Rachel and I think his stupid monkey?
Didn't enjoy Of Mice and Men for the annoying Lenny character "George, will we have rabbits?", "George, can I have ketchup?", "George, look at my pet mouse which I like to stroke but haven't realised my own strength so killed it and am so simple I don't know it's dead", Aw, look at the gentle giant crushing people's hands and necks by mistake.
Don't be a middle moistener.

Yep, I hated that too. And the girl had curls like "sausages".
The worst book you ask.............. See Spot Run.
Surely it's See Spot Has The Runs?

Nope. The worst kids' book I've read of late has to be:
I suspect Aaron would love that.
Though he might preffer "All the Frogs are sad and are going to die."
