*bawahahahahahahahaha*

And, I'm so glad that I'm not the only one who feels like this and who is despairing of the amount of interesting books that she gets rec'd via Goodreads all the time.

And, I'm so glad that I get so many books rec'd because of 99,9% of these books I've never ever heard before and would have never ever read. And when I think how many AWESOME books I would have missed otherwise? *shudders*

Also, I'm in love with these pics! Especially, um, the first 4 - so, so true!

Yes, you are right, of course. We would have indeed missed many awesome books. But I fear we are missing even more still because of TIME... *ehasdhsajhskdshkshdkjsdhskhs* Sigh

*fist bump*

Oh yes! But at least we get to read some of them...

*fist bumps you back*

That list.
*wishes you luck*

I wish the world would just stop so I could catch up. Period.
But reading would be nice, too.

Also, that last pic...*falls over with fits over laughter*
I hadn't seen that one before. The others I have and they are so true!

Indeed they are - I laughed out loud too at the last picture.

If my plans for a timestopper pan out, I'll PM you ;)

LOVE your icon *stares*

That first one is also how I
often feel about a film or a particular
episode in a series that touches somewhere deep inside me.

Count me in as a fan on the last cartoon. :)

After stalking through the first 50 books on your last, can I just say that as a big P&P fan, I was really disappointed in Death Comesto Pemberely.

Oooooo, thanks. Duly noted. I must admit to be disappointed with most of the published sequels or spin offs of P&P. Somehow they all just... fail.

Heehee! Those pics are hilarious and oh, so true!
I love Goodreads but try to just hop on and off the site quickly before I get sucked in - not that that usually works. So many books, so little time....

tari_roo October 2 2012, 05:52:57 UTC

I think that that is the mantra of my life: So many books, so many shows, so much fic... so little time ;)
