    I finally watched the Swedish version of Girl with Dragon Tattoo and I really liked it! Am thinking I will wait for dvd for the American version, it's like three hours long right? I started reading Girl who Played with Fire last night and I couldn't put it down.

    Some of them are good, but it was really hard to read through... It's a good read for when you're going to bed lol

    Hi Mia, was spending a little time updating my shelf today and thought I would pop by and say hello. ;) Hope you are well. How are you liking Girl with the Dragon Tattoo? Its on my TBR list, tried to get it selected for book club but was vetoed as some of the girls had seen the movie and found it too dark and depressing.

    I haven't seen the movies yet, but have heard such good things that I just had to get the first book. I'll let you know how I like it once I've read it. ;)

    Hi Mia, hope you are well! I finally joined facebook if you are on there. I'm reading the new Dan Brown right now, it's actually much better than I thought it would be.

    Hi Mia, Salam alaikum....Thanks for your invitation and welcome. I am now trying to transfer my Shelfari account to the myspace app, but having some trouble. I should have added the app in the beginning, before I added all the books. Anyway, I will figure it out. Being part of Shelfari has motivated me to read more, so I'm glad you invited me. Thanks.

    I never understood those cliffs notes, gotta be for cheaters that dont want to read the book at all! I think I will finish up the book I am reading, then start Heart of Darkness. I'm excited, I've been curious to see if it will hold up now that I'm not in high school and reading it for class.

    Hey Mia, if you read Heart of Darkness, let me know and I will re-read it with you! A friend of mine re-read it for a college course and liked it better than when we read it in high school. If I remember right, you won't need cliff notes and it's a pretty short book. :)

    I'm doing good. I had surgery on my leg 3 weeks ago so I've been home bound and reading a lot of books. I'm glad to hear that things are going well for you. I'm sure you are ready for a much needed break. Hope you have a Merry Christmas!

    Hi Mia dear, I did see the Bees movie and I really really liked it. I had just re-read the book that week so it was all real fresh in my mind and I still really enjoyed it. The soundtrack is going to be awesome.

    Hi Mia!
    I loved "Choke". It was recently made into a movie that I decided I wouldn't even waste my with. The previews looked that horrible. You have a great shelf and I picked a few books from you to add to my 'to be read' pile. Thanks!

    So glad you are almost done! I majored in accounting so the textbooks weren't great reading material! Good luck!
