Just bought The Scarlett Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne and am reading that now, also bought Little Women but haven't started that yet. Last week I got Sue Grafton's "T" (I have her entire collection from A to T now!) and finished that already.

GarnetTigerMom

Scarlett Letter was a good book and turn into a good movie. I remembered the book I used to read called "North and the South" by John Jakes and they turned into a movie. It was good.

i guess ill join this thread, despite to my recent new thread that apparently turned out to be a "repost." As I repeat that I am currently reading "The Lovely Bones" and it is a good novel so far. I'm almost done with it and am anxious to see what the book has in store for me in the end of the story. I did mention that it is a sad novel, but I'll rephrase that it is more of an interesting narrative story with well-descriptive characters that are dealing with a tragedy so it doesnt need any box of tissues. I'm not sure what will I read next, and I haven't bought a book in a long time because I always borrow books from family members and friends.

Stephen King the " The road to dark towers " ,, he always spooky! lol

i read lovely bones yes it was sad book but really good that i wouldn't put it down read it all day in one day

Have you thought about using the books from the library instead? What about only getting the book when you really need it (if it's just for a couple days).

I got a book for class at community college once. The professor assigned us two books required for the course. One was a guide and one was a collection of short stories. I bought the guide right away since we were going to use it for the whole semester. However, the other book was mostly discussed during class... so I had no need to read it right away. We did have an assignment during the middle of the semester where we had to read several short stories and write a 5-page paper on one story. So, I waited until a few days the paper was due and bought the book from the bookstore. I finished the paper the next day and returned the book since I had no further need for it. Instead of getting some money from their "buyback" option, I got a full refund.

Ah, yes EGBDF for the music (my best friend taught me abit about piano playing when we were little). I heard of the old one that says "Every Good Boy Do Fine" but I also heard much newer one and much better one, in my opinion... "Empty Garbage Before Dad Flips".

Hah. And I just found out that "The Lovely Bones" film is due in 2009, starring the young actress who plays the main character from the film of "Atonement." I think it's kinda ironic.

This isn't so much a book I recently purchased, but a book-made-to-movie I purchased last night. It was John Grisham's "The Rainmaker". I absolutely LOVED the book, I absolutely HATED the movie. They took so much good stuff out and even changed a little bit of it. I've not seen John Grisham's movie The Runaway Jury yet and now I'm a bit unnerved about it.
