What are you currently reading?
Stopped reading it for a little to read \"A Clockwork Orange\" which I found to be extremely good, the movie really sticks to it except for a few alterations.
The main difference however, is the ending. In the book, there are 21 chapters. The movie ends at the end of chapter 20. Though that was most likely due to the book originally being published without the 21st chapter (Act 3, Chapter 7) in America.

In middle time I started to read book series \"Laura\" witten by Peter Freund.
:ohmy: :X
I got that book for a gift several years ago. I tried to read it, but I only managed to get to page 30-something and I just couldn't go on. I can't even begin to count up all the things that bothered me with it.
I donated it to our local library, so that it doesn't sit on my bookshelf for nothing.
One of my friends also had the misfortune to get it as a gift and she also couldn't read it through. :silly:
Hat off to you if you manage to read it till the end. *salutes*
I can't recommend that book/book-series to anyone, but if someone really wants to, they can go ahead and read it, or at least try to read it.
To see a world in a Grain of Sand,
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.

Yes, it's quite...boring, should I say. Action is not so interesting in book. I can't read it like other books I actually like. I read this mostly to waste time before I can go to library, wich is not near my home. :pinch:

I haven't read this particular book, but I do know that feeling! I always have to have something on hand to read. And I almost never give up halfway through, once I've started something... it would have to be really awful for me to do that.

Me also. No mater how much book is boring, I finish it. Don't know why, I just have to. :blink:
