Sanskriti

As must be obvious I'm an obsessive reader... if only I had more time! Am doing my MBA currently but when I'm not pouring over my regular textbooks getting lost in books is what I love.

    I represent the Lord of the Rings group and the admin Ankitrockin does not go on here so I could not E-mail her so I looked on her only friend Raulgolecha be she does not go on any more either and since I am not her friend I thought that you could try try to E-mail Raulgolecha to ask her if she could get her friend Ankitrockin back on so that she could make somebody else the group admin because we all would like to make some changes for the group. If you do tell her to look for Miss Baggins in her group. I really appreciate you reading this, but our group just needs a new admin. Please help if you can thank you.

    I really loved The other Boleyn girl. It is so much better than the movie (although I did enjoy it) They seem to have almost tried to rewrite history for the movie. It's incorrect in a few places. I recommend the book. I have read several of the authors books in the Tudor series and have enjoyed all of them.

    Into the Wild by Krakower........
    I have read many of his books......for some reason, this was the one I enjoyed the least. I think it's because it's so lonesome. The character was plagued by demons and paid less attention to his connection with the very thing he needed, which was connection.

    I didn't have time to peruse your shelves, but I was surprised at how much I liked The Other Boleyn Girl. Uncharacteristically, I saw the movie FIRST and that's what got me curious. It's intrigue and beautiful costumes (you can actually imagine them). It made me curious about his other wives...

    I'm an avid historical fiction fan. And Henry VIII is my secret celebrity boyfrined. I'm obsessed with all things Tudor. The Other Boylen Girl is absolutely on the BOTTOM of the list. Gregory's history is questionable, and her writing is just barely adequate. I'm not a big fan....
    If you want good historicals, try Anya Seyton's Katherine (not Tudor, but GREAT) Want lightweight historicals? Jean Plaidy. A little more substance? Margaret George. Tudor with a Twist? "Threads"

    Yes. You'll probably like "The Host" a lot! Action, suspense aliens & love stories too. Aren't we all obsessed with books. Work is a means to more great books-gets in the way of reading though.
