“Tell me, Tool, what dominates your thoughts?'
The Imass shrugged before replying.
'I think of futility, Adjunct.'
'Do all Imass think about futility?'
'No. Few think at all.'
'Why is that?'
The Imass leaned his head to one side and regarded her.
'Because Adjunct, it is futile.”

message 38: by Vi

Vi Wow, Midu! You're obviously a much, much better reader than I am! I don't want to think of the series I've started. Time to log into fictfact, I think. And you are a bad, bad person Midu. Recommending me another series ::scowl:: *adding book to TBR* :P


message 37: by Vi

Vi LOL, Midu! I ask too many questions, huh?! I should start the series but I've started way too many series and I need to catch up on them. Would you be continuing the series?

Movies Now in India are showing all the three movies which prompted me to read the series actually. I have to finish the books soon so that I can actually watch the movie.


message 36: by Vi (last edited Sep 04, 2012 11:41PM)

Vi Yeah, I do. Mostly, the Fantasy/UF/PNR are series, right? Not many singles out there. Or maybe I notice only series stuff. Hmm

That series is on my TBR. Did you finish it? How's it? Is it UF? Also, I just started reading the Lord of the Rings. Sad to say, I haven't ever read it before. A little slow going and I'm holding off the movies after I've read the books.


message 35: by Vi

Vi Fantastic! Me, too! Actually, I have a number of trilogy that I need to complete. Super, right? ;) Let me know if and when you're reading it. I'll try to join :)

Btw, fast reading for the SRC Challenge!
