..... Flies or Tolkien? :/

Lord of the Flies, definitely. I had major problems reading The Lord of the Rings.

Then No. 37 needs a correction :)

Thanks. I'm sick again, clearly not thinking straight.

IF HARRY POTTER RAN GE???? That sounds glorious. Also, stealing this.

It's a great book. I've also read "If Aristotle Ran General Motors." I really enjoyed both of them.

I admire you for being able to juggle 3 books at a time, wow!
How do you do it? I would be too afraid of mixing up the plots, that's why I've never truly tried.

If HP run GE? O.O
Oh this one I HAVE to read!!

Well, usually, the books that I'm reading are relatively far apart in terms of genre. For example, of the two I'm reading now, one is a children's fantasy and the other is an adult supernatural. I try not to read books with similar genres to prevent plot mixing.

If Harry Potter Ran General Electric isn't really about Harry Potter. It's mainly how the world of Harry Potter and his type of leadership would be good in the business world. But it is a very good read. I highly recommend it.

I love how you love books. It shows good character. <3

I was surprised this wasn't on here: When do you buy a book? When it looks interesting or only after you've read/loved it? I needs to know.

If I had my way, I would go buy every book I want to read in hardcover.

Pre-running out of space, I wouldn't buy any book unless I had already read it and legitimately could see myself reading it again. (Exceptions, HARRY FREAKING POTTER.) Now, I rarely buy any books but manga and even then, I stopped buying all my regular series and stick to one-shot yaoi because it's seriously all I have room for. This is the cause of not having any shelf space remaining. (Does this stop me from buying Prince of Tennis manga? No.)
