I love [u]MISERY[/u] by Stephen King, it's the one I'm reading right now. I loved [u]HOLES[/u] by Louis Sachar and [u]THE GREEN MILE[/u] by Stephen King also.

I don't think there are any books I hate, just some that I stopped reading because I couldn't get into them

I like books that relate to me and my life...
I want to make time to read To Kill a Mocking Bird.
I read the screen pay when I was in 10th grade in my Advanced Comm 10 class...I cried when I saw the movie. I really want to make time to read the book.
But there is a book that my friend Claire has...
It's a newly released book she bought at the Holland airport.
I can't think of the name, but seriously, that book is my life.
Anyway, Princess Diaries are really good too...They make me smile :D:
I can go on and on about my favorite books, but that can be saved for another day! :)

The sequel is Eldest? I've been meaning to get the sequel to Eragon for some time. Eragon was a great book.

A few years ago I read almost the whole [u]Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy[/u] series, by Douglas Adams. I think I was 9 then. I used to pray they would make a movie of it, and now they have. I hated the movie. Ironic, eh?

[u]The Wish List[/u], by Eain Colfer is what I'm currently reading. Interesting story, but a tad misguided I guess...

I just finished reading Eldest. If you like LOTR, you'll love this.....it is following the very same model.

That would be the biggest gripe that I have.....it is a blatant cross between LOTR and Star Wars, but it is still a very good read....and I am waiting for the movie and the third book. It is supposedly going to be called Empire. The movie, Eragon, will be released on June 16, 2006.

Sheesh, I have no life and read way too much.

So for short we can call it the E trilogy?

Actually, you would call it the "I" Trilogy. For it is the Inheritance Trilogy.

I suppose you're right.










No surprise there.
I like "E" better :P:

Like I said in my first post I loved The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. The movie ruined it. Somehow I doubt this will be much different. Or the Halo movie...

Yes, the links between Lotr, Star Wars and Eragon are quite blatent. I've always thought that too.
