I love to read, I have to fall in love with the characters and plots. I get all my books from the library, it's one of my trips out of thenest. Get some books, go have a tea at the coffee shop, skim them, decide which to read first, I used to read 5 books in 3 weeks, now 1 lots of creating these days. I like historical romance in UK, fantasy, one of the best series I have read is Jacqueline Carey, Kushiel's Legacy, there are 5 books and I read them twice. Carey introduces you to a new world, with amazing characters and I got lost in it twice :):<br /> Any who my dear wonderful post love your rambling it was very thought provoking, thanks for sharing, hope you find a fabulous book to read and enjoy, have a wonderful week, I'm working on the key chains :O) having lots of fun..Dianne https://www.blogger.com/profile/04719124445447564433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3576318890512977575.post-17452513421776979572013-07-01T22:17:40.122+01:002013-07-01T22:17:40.122+01:00Sorry the book made you feel like you did.

Your shrine is just awesome!!! As to the issues you feel you have with the book, try to remember that their are many people in this world only to happy to be lead by the puppeteer. Like the story of the emperors new clothes...maybe a lot of those who claim to love this book are just doing so to be seen to be clever, and don't "get it" any more than you did. Whatever the reason you found this a difficult book to get to grips with, it certainly inspired you to "look deeper" :D XXX Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08814694362956456055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3576318890512977575.post-87376929017345869842013-06-30T15:30:30.420+01:002013-06-30T15:30:30.420+01:00A clever piece of representitive art, Julie Ann......A clever piece of representitive art, Julie Ann...soooo much detail.
