Could you tell me if at Internet I could find any book of Karinthy. I would like to reat him/her.
I'm going to go mainstream here. I've never read an entire book twice becasue of one fundamental belief of mine: life is short and books abound. However, I've read 'Jurassic Park' (Michael Crichton) twice and seen the movie more times than I'd like to acknowledge
Maybe it's the dinosaurs that do it for me, maybe it was John Williams scores for the movie that made it unforgettable but I just love that book.

One of the best books in the world literature to my mind!
Have you seen the Master and Margaret TV series? I think it’s awesome. It is exactly as I imagined it when I read the book.
Do you mind my participation?
I have seen: from one hand i was happy finally to be able to watch, not only to read, on the other hand the movie looked cheap, like the Satana's ball and Margarita's flight abobe Moscow and so on. It could be better i suppose, but i liked the main characters and i guess the cat was terrific! the exact cat! also Master is boring, Voland unattractive (i was about to fall in love while reading... )
Anyhow i've bought dvds...

Instead of making fun you mean girl , why don't you explain why it's wrong to say it that way?
I'm sorry :D
Well, maybe I'm wrong, but your post just reminded me of one specific day in my first college year... A professor told us that desire and wish had completely different meanings in English... You know... like desire implied sexual connotations. When you said you had a strong desire to hug it I just couldn't help it... sorry again :D

You're lucky. You've seen the film.
I want to watch it too as it's one of my favourite books. And, yes, I think it's almost impossible to act this book. Extremely difficult!
So that's why maybe we shouldn't be too stern?!
No, you're right! We should be very stern!!! 8)
hello everyone, to start with,it's my first message here in EsL forum, coming our subject, I am sure that "shibumi" was the best book I have ever read. Therefore it is my favourite book.
I think everyone should read it, I had already read it non-stop
Hi!

I dislike read books but I tryed to read and I read ( a good night to kill ) by lillan o'donnell i read this becouse the title of this book has alot of adventure. But I didn't finish it .I feel dulness when I read
hi city young . try to read about what you love
if it musice or art or anything you are intrested in .
yeah some books are not intristing enough to makes you continiue but belive me reading is fun, it is increase your knowlege and add a new things to your life :D .
i love books because to me they are the best teacher,
especially novels.
i have finished up the " DA VINCI code" , that novel is really amazing.
and I also love to read more, any books about any subjects.
I love Soviet's literature. But if I have to tell you about English-writing author, I think that I like Yann Martel most. Have you ever read Life of Pi (by Y.M)? That book won Man Booker Prize 2002!
My favourites books are "The forest woman" by Theresa Tomlinson (I don't remember very good her name) and "Memoirs of a Geisha" by Arthur Golden, very famous by the film, but I prefer the book. And the Harry Potter series ^^

I started reading Memoirs of a Geisha just last night! It's pretty interesting so far. I haven't seen the movie, though. I always prefer to read the book first.
My favorite book is English book and comics.....I don't like literature book very much, but I read some in my leisure time........ :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

My favorite book by Coelho is The Alchemist , as you might have figured 8) But I always enjoy reading his books. I can't do it without a pencil on the other hand. There are so many interesting quotes in all his work.
