Books from Karen Rose tend to be my faves.

Bone mans daughters - Ted Dekker is my FAVE book of all time. It was amazing, loved it. LOVED it. Did i mention i loved it?!

Daniel - Ted Dekker is another good book, not quite as amazing as Bone mans daughters though.

Thr3e - Ted Dekker is another amazing book, but not quite as amazing as bone mans daughter....

i may have others to list soon when i've read a new book i recently got from an author i've never read before called Peter Robison. But i'm currently reading a Karen Rose book. "You can't hide" is one of my many faves of hers.

Not many knew i was a book worm did they? :P

This is an interesting topic for me.. I LOVE books..

My all time favorite is Romeo + Juliet. It is a tragedy, but it's also the second greatest love story ever written. (The first greatest love story ever written is your own ;) )

I'm also a big fan of The Twilight Saga. (particularly Breaking Dawn)

The House of Night series.

Immortal (It's a collection of vampire love stories)

Thirst No. 1 & 2

I could go on forever.

"Animal Farm" by George Orwell - it is a must read for any would be revolutionaries (includes the blueprints for how to stage it with all of its lofty ideals and why it eventually all falls into decay as time goes on and corruption takes over)

The soon to be published (keep your fingers crossed) "Poems From A Transgendered Heart" By Me (have your tissues handy!)

"Fables for Modern Times" by James Thurber

Love ya,

Sally

My favorite novel is From E to You by Chris d'Lacey and Linda Newbery, which no one else has every heard of and is a completely ridiculous YA novel about two kids jumping to increasingly insane conclusions about the relationships between their parents. IT IS AWESOME.

I also love The Jennifer Morgue by Charles Stross and The Gun Seller by Hugh Laurie.

I don't see him here, so I have to mention the novels of Vladimir Nabokov. I've read three. Lolita and Pale Fire were both extraordinary: like nothing else I've ever read and brilliantly written. Bend Sinister is also very interesting. I also like what I've read by David Foster Wallace; his book of short stories, Oblivion, is fantastic. I also read some cool essays by him in some collection that I forget the name of. One day I'd like to read his novel Infinite Jest, but it's supposed to be very difficult.

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy(Douglas Adams just makes me laugh every page)and Animal Farm, nothing is better than a tale of the fall of a wonderful government style into Anarchy.

I'm pretty much into the classics when it comes to literature... "The Trial" by Franz Kafka and "The Forest of the Gods" by Balys Sruoga are probably my favourites. I also liked Nabokov's "Lolita" a lot.

My list of 'least favourite books' is a lot longer, thouhg :D I'm picky.

The Picture of Dorian Grey by Oscar Wilde and the LOTR trilogy by JRR Tolkien have forever been tied for my favourite novels.

I also adore everything by Isaac Asimov.

Fingersmith - Sarah Waters

The Mists of Avalon (just the books in the series that MZB wrote)

LOTR

There's Nothing in This Book That I Meant to Say - Paula Poundstone

Really want to read The Age of the Pussyfoot also.

      I'm hoping to read the next section today.  Many of the reforms they are calling for are good, such as expediting the military procurement process, and have nothing to do with transgender issues.

      Good afternoon,    I have a young friend who is vegetarian and married to a full on meat eater. They have two areas of their grill clearly designated for their different cooking requirements. When she’s cooking she uses tongs or chopsticks to handle any meats. When he’s cooking he respects her request not to cook her meals on the side where meat has been. They get along fine and respect each other.    When she attends our house, she usually brings her own food, but knows I will clean my grill to meet her requirements. We love and respect her commitment to be vegetarian. I love that she trusts me to make her comfortable when visiting us. There are ways to make it work.    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I was going to call it Numbness, then I realised well.. it isn't. basically, yeah, it isn't.   this only happens to me sometimes. I'll be lying down and my legs will.. well, I guess lock?   If I straighten them out, they will unlock- when I roll over again, they will lock again. this lasts for around 10/ 15 minutes I guess   it's not pins and needles either

      In this case the MAGA GOP transphobes Just my opinion of course
    • atlantis63
      so, a close friend wants to cook for me   the issue is, she is a vegitarian and won't handle meat- I, on the other hand, won't handle vegetables- hate the things   every time she goes out to the shop, she comes back with something.. a cake, a fruit smoothie, a coffee, I won't eat any of it. please help me think of something that she could make for me that I'll actually eat   disclaimer: you are talking to the most pickiest eater in the world. good luck

      I think there is some truth in this.  They intend to implement Project 2025, whether or not he spends his energies persecuting the Democrats who have been persecuting him (in his view, a debatable point) and does nothing else.   I have seen numerous accusations that the document is about "Trumpism", whatever that is, and is merely a vehicle for him to become dictator.  From what I have read so far, that is the same sort of truth as the Steele Dossier, denying the validity of a certain laptop, Schiff's non-existence evidence of collaboration and a host of other things, many directly from Biden, that are simply not true.   I will continue reading it.

      Who, precisely, are "they"?

      Wife of mine pointed out that not getting a haircut for a month looks hideous - weird bald patches.  So back to super- short buzz cut.  This morning I braced, looking in the mirror.  I look like a woman trying to pass as a a guy, maybe  a small-breasted woman with enough T treatment to grow a mustache.    I would not believe me if I read what I write about me.  This is nuts.   White t-shirt: that they sell in the back of WM so you can tie-dye them or otherwise decorate them. They are thick and long lasting and slightly fitted, so that they could be a man's.  I like them.   Jeans, flip flops.   I will no longer point out these are women's.  What else would I wear?

      That is all that is necessary. I did the same thing. I must have gotten something wrong.

      Quite right mate! I have been letting my hair grow out again (I cut it all off when I was 18).    I'll never look this good:    But I'll aspire to look my best! ☺️
