    Okay, so this is for teenagers (mostly girls) but guys are allowed too. My teacher in English told me i should write about my old love life because it was really interesting. I decided to share my writing on here so please enjoy. Have fun, you can also ask me advice about love and relationships and i can give you plenty of advice. This is mostly for those teenagers who want to read about love or want to know more about love, please enjoy! join my group!!!

    I've just finished Never Let Me Go, its tone is nostalgic and sad in the end. But i appreciated the author's take on humanizing the medical topic on cloning. It is more about human relationship and society as the author conjure the scenarios about clones being common in our society. Unique one.

    Shadow of the Wind is still on my TBR which grows by leaps and bounds with some of the wonderful Groups I participate in. I'll have more time for reading after the middle of January, I've put in my retirement notice and I'm looking forward to it - at the same time, it feels weird to be leaving. Perhaps I'll get to Shadow soon.

    I am so sorry, I wrote southwest and I meant southeast. I think I may have done that in another post also. I don't know where my mind was.

    I noticed on W McBear's page that you were wondering if Pale Horse, Pale Rider is worth reading. YES. The title piece (a novella K.A. Porter insisted is a short novel) is my favourite of Porter's writing and is, in many minds at least, one of the great pieces of short fiction of the 20th century. Just glancing at some of the other titles on your shelf, I think you might agree.

    Inkberry you seem to be so uptight. It was just a game we were playing for fun. Your answers seem to have such attitude behind them. Is there a problem ? Thank God the person under me had kind words to say to diffuse your attitude.
