I am still in the early early british history. It is somewhat interesting, but I am learning that Britian was a weak little cowardice country, before they 'grew up'. lol

YES IT WAS I was shocked that England, who was in charge of a lot of the world, started soo weak
Oh I gtg:(

Yes, and kind of amusing. lol

Aww, bye, :(

I'm learning about world history in school right now, but I'd much rather learn about American history. With world history, there is so much to learn in so short a time that I never get to delve into the interesting details. However, with American history, I can delve really deep into the details, and I love how interesting that makes things. For the next two years I'll be taking only American history, so that will be awesome! :)

Anyways, right now I'm reading Mansfield Park by Jane Austen. I haven't been able to read much because I've been furiously working on both schoolwork and Camp NaNo, but I love what I've read so far.

I have never read Mansfield Park. :-\ My older sister has though, and if I remember correctly it is her favorite of all of Austen's books. Mine is Sense and Sensibility. :)

So far my favorite Austen book is Pride and Prejudice. I can't get enough of the banter between Mr. and Mrs. Bennet.

Yes! They were the worst fictional match ever, but so hilarious together.

I'm currently reading "The Children of Hurin," But J.R.R. Tolkien... *sniffs* it's very dark and sad and depressing, but I'm enjoying it as much as one can while crying your heart out because of the deaths of your favorite characters *bursts into tears*

I am reading a lot of books right now! I am reading an Agatha Christie mystery, Tortured for Christ, Inkdeath, The Heavenly Man, and like two more!

Have any of you guys read Agatha Christie mysteries?

Yes! I have read some Agatha Christie mysteries. I love them!!! Especially the Poroit ones, I think they are the best.

I have read Inkdeath too. I haven't read the last book in the series yet. I keep forgetting about it. :P

Inkdeath is the last book! Maybe you're thinking of Inkspell.

Yeah, I love the Hercule Poirot ones!

Yeah, maybe I am. lol

Have you watched any of the Poirot tv show episodes?

No! I didn't even know they had them! I need to watch those!

You should! They are very good.


But be careful, some of them have nudity in them. :-\ We found that out when we watched one of the episode. I was so upset about it, why would they do that!?

Ugh! Yeah, I will have to careful with that. Sometimes I get so mad. They put such unnecessary things in stuff! Why do you need nudity? :/

IKR!

:d I hate it also when they put swearing in good movies! I mean some stuff is necessary to the plot. For example, the inappropriate part in Iron Man one, if you have seen it you know what I mean, is necessary to show what a playboy he is. But other stuff is just unneeded!

I have not seen Iron Man because of the inappropriate stuff in it.
But I get what you are saying.

Currently reading The Wee Free Men and Interpreter of Maladies. Both are completely opposite genres, it's difficult to keep track of both lol.

What are they about? I don't think I have heard of those books before. :)

Oh Mansfield Park was my long-standing favorite until I read Persuasion. I highly recommend it!

I'm beta-reading Water Princess, Fire Prince by Kendra E Ardnek, and it's awesome! :D

I'm currently reading the Time Machine (for school), and Foundation by Isaac Asimov.

I don't think I have ever heard of that book. Is it good?

I just saw your review on it yesterday!

I'm currently reading Hamlet (school), and Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.

I read part of Hamlet. (for school) I was suppose to read the whole thing, but I didn't finish it. :P

I will :P I did choose it after all (I'm homeschooled).

lol I didn't choose it, and I didn't want to read it. I do not like Shakespeare.
