I've seen them in the bookstore... They are seldomly brought and when they are, they vanish quickly, leaving only some books but they are the nr 5, nr 7, etc... And I won't start reading the fifth book of a series... :evil:

Well maybe have your parents by you it on the internet?

They won't... Basically because it should be a worthy package, not just one book and I must give them the money in exchange. Shipping costs included, oh I should pay them in dollars.

The last book I read all the way through was Return of the King, then school got in the way once again. So far this summer I have been reading Jurassic Park (again, 11th time) and Touching My Fathers Soul, about Tenzing and Jamling Norgay, on top of catching up on my backlog of Souckiety of Vertebrate Paleontology Journals :D

Return of the King, a great book! It was probably my favorite of the series. :D

No, no job, I'm still in school and while I usually work during summer vacations (december in Costa Rica), I don't like to work in the mid year vacations (July).

I'm nearly finished with Dark Tide II: Ruin and will soon be starting the first Agents of Chaos book. Don't tell me anything about the two books because if soemone says something good, I'll get my hopes up and dislike the book because of what I expected. If you say it's bad, I'll end up starting the book with bad expectations and not enjoy it. No one mention anything about it, please!

 

By the way, I hadn't realized Recovery was an e-book. I guess I'll be buying it online (they sell it at the Borders website).

Yes it has, On average how many pages do you think you read a day, SOCL?

As am I.

 

It certainly has taken a while for you to finish it... :roll:
Yes, well, between work, school, and having set it aside for almost a month, it most certainly has taken a long time. But realize, I read Dark Tide I in less than a day on a bus trip to Six Flags (an amusement park that wasn't all that great).

If you meant that sarcastically: I won't respond.

If you meant it seriously: I'm not sure. Like I said, I've had many distractions and the almost complete lack of Imperials and so many Jedi in it really disattracted me to the story (not to mention drove me nuts). I'm just glad Ruin is ending with the Imperials and Pellaeon.

Oh, Antilliles, regarding that same question: Like I told, Trej, I read Dark Tide I in less than a day, so it's not my capability, but my interest level that determines the amount of time its take me to read a book. I read the entire Thrawn Trilogy and Hand of Thrawn duology together over a weekend, but I'm still in the process of finishing The Bacta War, which I started over a year ago.

Interest, my friend.

No, I was being serious.

 

 

And I will agree with you on interest. I read the whole Thrawn Trilogy in 4 days with playing video games, swimming, etc.

 

And if I am not interested in a book, Forget IT!

 

But almost every single SW book is interesting you just have to get into it. :D

Interest indeed, I have yet to finish Shield of Lies... Which I started several months ago, but I'm reading Greek Tragedies in less than a day... NJO books don't last that much , regardless of school 8) .... Star by Star lasted no more than three days... All of which I had exams...
