I'll join! I love to read! The last book I read was "A Tree Grows in Brookland" (I know I spelled that wrong and I'll probably spell more things worng but bear with me). Some of my favorite books include: The Lord of the Rings (obviously), Princess Bride, The Personal Recolections of Joan of Arc, and all of Gerald Moriss's books and Jane Austin books. And the Bible of course but that's in a class of it's own.

Hey Turwraithiel! You've read Princess Bride too! I love that book soooo much! It's sooo funny! The movies good too. I've seen it a million times.
Oh I forgot a few of my favorite books! The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Trillogy in five parts. Very good stuff.
For anyone who hasn't read Princess Bride but you love the movie or even if you've never seen the movie, read the book. It's really good. A little different...but good.

(I don't know if I know Sam. Is it someone here on the A-U? I don't know very many people here well.)
Oh yes! Tamora Pierce is very briliant as well! I've read her Protector of the Small series and Wild Magic and I just finished Alanna the First Adventure.

I'd love to join! I love reading!
I've read the Princess Bride, it was good! I love the Hitchhiker's Guide Series! I think it was probably the funniest series of books I've ever read. I'll read pretty much any genre of book, but I particularly like fantasy, sci-fi, and historical fiction.

(yes, she is on here...she is known as Merry & Sam...)
Awesome! I've read her Alanna Quarlet, Immortals Quarlet, Protector of the Small Quarlet, The Magic Cicrle Quarlet, and I am on book three of The Circle Opens Quarlet. I'm glad someone else likes her too! _________________

^another book on my list of books to read, probably should read it i need improvement in my character development
Right now I'm reading Pinned by Alfred C. Martino--he's a new author, it's his first novel. I'm going to meet him Monday with my bookclub-he's really good at description, even though its about wrestling and i dont really like sports books his is really good cuz its not all about the wrestling, its about setting a goal and doing whatevers possible to reach it. I would suggest Pinned
