Question of the Week - Words that Make You Cringe
gotcha and catcha...i don't understand this whole "cha" business.
Romeo and Juliet - I love this book!
perhaps sadness is the emotion that everyone relates to. it is the ultimate truth of life that happiness and sadness are two sides of a coin. it also helps us to forget our problems for some time and feel a pity for the characters in the book.
Question of the Week - Influential Books
the alchemist by Paulo Coelho. it is a very inspiring book that taught me to follow my heart.
Question of the Week - What's Your Favorite Word?
lolaapalooza; it means an extraordinary or unusual thing, person, or event
The 50th Law - I'm out - Machiavelli quote did it.
machiavelli's prince instructs on the conduct of a prince and to judge his quotes and teaching according to the 21st century standards is unfair. but yes it would have been a lot nicer if he used some other metaphor because there is absolutely no lack of such cynics who would use this quote to prove that to dominate women is the right thing to do.
Question of the Week - Fiction or Nonfiction?
Fiction. transports to another world. there is enough to cope in this world.

"Great Expectations"
"Harry Potter"

Ideas - Favourite opening line(s) of a novel.
ok. i have read many novels but never found something so realistic and yet funny. it is from jane austen's pride and prejudice- "IT is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.
However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighbourhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered as the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters."
Question of the Week - Favorite Banned Books
Frankenstein, Macbeth, adventures of tom sawyer and wuthering heights. i guess i read only banned books...
