8. Get some books that are NOT about saving my R with H.\


Oh thank God!

Yes! Good for you.

There is only so much reading different books that basically say the same things.

You read 2 or 3 of them and the rest just support the stuff you already read and agreed with or disagreed with.

The resources here, good stuff to give you an idea of what to expect and some idea of what the MLC is about.

Oh yeah...timeline...IF you come across that dirty little rat...You should print it out, stab it, shoot it, burn it, gather the ashes put them n a lead lined box with a piece of kyrptonite, weight it down with silver chains and toss into a river at least 10 miles away from your house...THAT is how deadly a timeline is for you as an MLC LBSer. If you cannot do that, ignore it and put no stock in it.

PS - I highly recommend Suzanne Collins - The Hunger Games

Young Adult, similar to (I suppose) Twilight (threw up a little in my mouth there), but no lame ass vampires.
Look up a review of the book.

While I had a hard time seeing the story through the mind of a 16 year old girl, Katniss who is the protagonist...it gave me some great insight as to why I didn't date very often in high school, but I had a ton of 'just friends' : )

I just bought this book last nite, for my newphew, who needs to read it for school! The clerk at the B&N said it was excellent, and that I'd probably enjoy reading it, too.

No kidding eh ... when did vampires start to "sparkle"???? Last time I checked they were supposed to be bad a$$! Nothin like ruining perfectly good vampires by making them lame.

I have read it, I can say that only one book made me so involved in the story that I cried before reading The Hunger Games, The Hunger Games was the second book to do so.

Star, the person who initially recommended the book to me was my 50+ Director, and he reads some damn good Sci-Fi and Fantasy, he couldn't recommend this book higher.

Don't worry, I'm sticking to my open ended timeline, just like toilet training my D3. I fully expect to have to clean poop out of odd places too.

Thanks!

I think I will hit the library tonight after I get a little housework done. Have to make sure my running clothes aren't stinky for my run tomorrow!

Mushy guys rock, btw.
