What are you reading? - Page 86

Mr.Erskine · 01-06-2012, 09:31 PM

I'm currently reading Mary Poppins. I realize that for a 32 year old, that seems odd, but it's been one of my top favorite movies forever, and I finally wanted to read the book...

It's a good bit different than the movie. Mary Poppins is a ***** in the book.

I've heard this but i actually struggle on the kindle. I don't know if it's because I'm too used to books and I'm unwilling to change or what but something about the kindle just doesnt feel right to me. I think it just comes down to personal preference. I got a kindle for christmas and just gave it to my dad because I can't get used to it and I'm afraid i'll fall asleep while using it and roll over on it

Are you going to do all of them (Frank Herbert's) or just the first three?

Just depends on how this one goes. If its as good as I hope then there will be no doubt that I will read the rest.
