Doing very good. I've never heardof Stephenie Meyer before. What kind of books are they?

Teen lit vampire novels :) My kind of stuff. I just eat up that fantasy. Not to mention, the vampires are incredibly sexy. But then again it seems to be very difficult to be a vampire without scorching everyone in your path ;) You should check them out, if that's your sort of thing :)

Oooooh, sounds very interesting. I will check them out. Do they go in a series or can I just pick one?

Well so far there are two, Twilight's the first, then New Moon, but there are two more set to come out, plus a fifth (which will be Twilight rewritten in a different POV). So start with Twilight and if you like it, move on to New Moon from there. Glad you're interested and happy reading!

Did I tell you that I'd check the CD the sound of silence after the very last time you mentioned it to me? It's nice, peaceful but with strength...very influentive.

Oh, I don't think I've ever mentioned it. It's just a song that's been stuck in my head cause we're watching The Graduate in film club. Are you talking about the Simon & Garfunkel version?

Guess I mixed something together...

The CD I listened is The Silence Force: Within Temptation by Sharon Den Adel whom you'd made icons before. And the set you're talking about is http://www.amazon.com/Sounds-Silence-Simon-Garfunkel/dp/B00005NKKV which was mentioned by whom I cann't recall... *blank* I alway feel dumb in those things I'm seldom addicted...XD

Oh, excellent, you listened to Within Temptation. They are wonderful, aren't they? And I can totally understand the mix-up; they sound very similar. Glad you like them :)

I've just read "Of Mice and Men" and "Blood and Chocolate" myself. I was so unsettled at the end of "Mice" and I actually wanted a sequel to "Blood."

I've been inspired by you to do the 50 book challenge as well.

I'm currently reading "The Stupidest Angel" by Christopher Moore.

Congrats on your book numbers and page count. Keep it up!

I was so unsettled at the end of "Mice" and I actually wanted a sequel to "Blood."
Agreed with both. "Mice" up to the ending had been pretty calm, almost lazy. Just thought of it as an incredibly well-written, comfortable summer day and then bang out of nowhere. And there definitely needed to be more of "Blood".
I'm glad I've inspired you to do the 50bookchallenge, and good luck to you as well. I'm looking forward to reading Moore's vampire books :)
