None of the above. Always checking books out of the library though. Usually thrillers. |
LindaH     | | posted 29-Nov-2007 9:20pm |
None of those. I've been reading nonfiction lately. |

The Thief of Time was the very first Pratchett book I ever read. It definitely got me hooked. |
| RGirl | | posted 29-Nov-2007 9:42pm |
None. I have Harry Potter but not ready to read it yet. I wanted to read the whole series from 1 to 7 and I am almost done with 6. |
| ausfox | | posted 29-Nov-2007 9:51pm |
The only one of these I've read is Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. |

Have you read "The Sheltering Sky" by Paul Bowles yet; trust me, you'll love it.

No.
I am going to make a note of it though. I keep a list of books I want to read. |

ALL OF THEM!!!
I had to read Three Day Road beause it was for one of my courses. It started out okay, but got really boring.
The Hanging Garden was just blah. An okay read, I guess.
I actually really liked Tara Road, but I head all her other books are the same. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants a cathartic, feel good novel.
I picked up In Dubious Battle because I felt like reading something intellectual. Two months later, I finally got through it. It was boring, it was eventless and plotless, but it's a good book.
Guards! Guards! was recommended to me by a Chapters employee. He said it was the best book to start Pratchett off with.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was great!!! I have few issues with it, but I enjoyed nothing more than finishing the series. I am still waiting for the Encyclopedia Rowling promised us.
The Thief of Time was really dumb. I was waiting for a great romance to develop between Myria and Mr Jeremy. But no.
Maskarade is my absolute Pratchett's favourite. Gotta have opera background if you're going to read it, otherwise it won't be funny.
The Truth was mildly amusing.
And Carpe Jugulum, while entertaining, was kind of dumb at the end. Don't even remember the ending, but really dumb. Love Nanny Ogg |

The Truth, Deathly Hallows, and The Thief of Time. The Truth was my favourite book for about three years. I bought it at an airport, just for something to read, thinking 'Ooh Terry Pratchett.' |

Hm, none. |

None.
This year I've read most of "The day after Roswell" and I'm still working on "Schelpping through the Alps". I've picked up non-fiction this year, and I pick it up because of the endless possibilities to learn from others' experiences, but sometimes I have a hard time getting through it. When I finish "Schlepping", I need to pick up a ficton book, as I haven't read this year with the regularity that I'd like to. I think I just need to sink into a good story without regard to learning...just let it happen if it will.
Also, I'm volunteering now at our local library. We have a great rural library here. But getting my hands on all of those books has really re-invigorated my desire to get more into reading again....fiction this time. |
bill   | | posted 30-Nov-2007 9:21am |
none of these  ...but, I did read a lot of books this year. |
Enheduanna  | | posted 30-Nov-2007 10:51am |
I think Harry Potter is the only one. I read the first book in Pratchett's Discworld series a couple of years ago, but I don't remember the title and I don't think it was any of these. I can't quite recall if I've read In Dubious Battle; I read a lot of Steinbeck some years ago, but I'm not sure I read that one. |

Would it be alright if I made a survey like this for myself? With due credit, of course. |
cerealkiller   | | posted 30-Nov-2007 11:30am |
Where's the choice for "None"? |
Frostbrand  | | posted 30-Nov-2007 12:11pm |
Just Harry Potter, but I;m still working on my own list (I do these surveys every year too). |
| docgbrown | | posted 30-Nov-2007 12:37pm |
None of the above |
| CarlHalling | | posted 30-Nov-2007 1:46pm |
None of them I'm afraid; I'm not much one for fiction. |
kcthedog  | | posted 30-Nov-2007 3:35pm |
I feel so illiterate! I have not read any of the books you mentioned, what I usually read are technical manuals or engineering books. When I leisure read its ether metaphysical or spiritual in nature. |
| JessicaWoman99 | | posted 30-Nov-2007 4:01pm |
Well i can say none of them have i read |
Iseult  | | (reply to Melf) posted 30-Nov-2007 4:35pm |
Please do! I'd actually love to see what other people have been reading. |

Just the Harry Potter. My mum loves Terry Pratchett, but I've only read some of the graphic novels based on his books. I did play the computer game Discworld Noir though (it was good). |
| Gomezy3k |
"E" None of the above. I do want to find the "Harry Potter book" when it comes out in paperback... |
Melf    | | (reply to Iseult) posted 2-Dec-2007 9:06am |
Thanks
I'll get started on that soon. |

I haven't read any of them. The only author on the list that I've read was Steinbeck, but not that book. |

I've read some John Steinbeck and Terry Pratchett, just not any of those ones. |
