    You might also enjoy: "Daddy" and "Jaguar" by Loup Durand, "Shadow in the Wind" and "The Angel's Game" by Carlos Ruiz Zafon.

    Also if you like fantasy/adventure stories: "Tales of the Dying Earth" by Jack Vance is perhaps the quintessential collection of sci/fi fantasy/adventure stories ever written by one of the most revered and awarded authors to write in this genre. The words that come to mind when trying to describe his incredible achievement are: wondrous, magnificent, epic, spellbinding, dazzling, exquisite, inventive, wordsmithery, magical, elegant, enthralling, engrossing, imaginative, original, mellifluous pacing, atmospheric backdrops, transformational, fantastical storylines! I read the first story in this collection when i was 11 years old and the others in the ensuing years. Over the years I have read the collection over 20 times, each time reflecting on the joy it brings me and its life changing impact on my reading addiction. Just imagine being able to transform written words from your minds eye into life-like visions and you will then understand the sensual impact of Jack Vance's brilliance! Ironically, because of its unique qualities I have always been protective and therefore reluctant to expose this truly fabulous literary experience to others for fear of diminishing its value to me...a misguided supposition I know, but true never-the-less. So, if you want to share my journey into the unknown and wander through the beautiful worlds as penned by a master scribe then you will want to read this incredible collection of stories and revel in their beatific perfection. Storytelling at its best; a masterpiece...Enjoy and READ ON...

    Hi. How are you? I am the author of a book titled Living With OCD. I saw that you edited my book's page about a month ago. I was just wondering if you had a chance to read my book and if so what you thought of it. I am interested in the feedback. Thank you very much.

    I wanted to apologize to any of my friends here on Shelfari who got the impression that my Halloween "BOO"k was spam. I really did not intend for it to be perceived that way. If I could put a smile or brighten someone's day with a simple gesture, then I would do it in a heart beat (espeacially, considering the times that we live in now).

    I hope you all have fun this Halloween because I know I enjoy the heck out of it! :)

    “BOO”K!!!

    The air is cool, the season fall,
    Soon Halloween will come to all.
    The spooks are after things to do
    In fact, a spook brought this to you.
    The treat that came in encrypted code
    Is yours to keep so enjoy it all.
    “BOO”K is a shield from the witching hour
    Just replace your personal icon
    With a “BOO” or “BOO”K for power.
    The power comes when friends like you
    Who will copy this and make it TWO.
    Then others here among our friends
    Will give warm fuzzy reads that are sure to end.
    We’ll all have smiles upon our faces
    Because we will know who “BOO”Ked
    On our personal web spaces.
    Just one short day to work your spell or ghouls and goblins will drag you to hell.
    And don’t forget the electronic treat
    That someone can turn into something SWEET!
    Please join the fun, let’s really hear it
    And spread some “BOO”Ks and Halloween spirit.

    Please check your email account that is linked with your Shelfari account for your “BOO”K egift!

    Happy Halloween!!!

    Hey, thanks for finishing up the move of Science Fiction Masterworks from series to community lists, that was a huge job.

    Hopefully you guys have sunny days right now, I used to live near Redmond and the drizzle drove me away haha.
