Read Calvin & Hobbs (and Dilbert) every day :)

re: Traven - somewhat of a mystery as a person, his book was made into a wonderful movie here in the USA.

I loved Treasure Island... vastly underrated book.

I liked treasure island but kidnapped is one of my very favorites.

I recognize the name Charles kingsley. if I remember rightly he was a part of the formative "muscular Christianity" movement in England.

The Dragon in the Sea - Frank Herbert

Chinese Cinderella and the Secret Dragon Society - Adeline Yen Mah

The Secret of Nimh - Seymour Reit

in keeping with some recent James bond entries,

The Story of Titles: How the King became His Majesty by LG Pine

Hadassah: One Night with the King - Mark Andrew Olsen, Tommy Tenney

that looks like a nifty read danik.

midnight in the garden of good and evil by berendt.

nope...

Midnight at the Well of Souls - Jack L. Chalker

King Lear(a favorite) -William Shakespeare

Some Confusion

The Other Side of Midnight-Sidney Sheldon

if I can cheat a bit...

anne of Ingleside by lm Montgomery, a book in the anne of green gables series that once was a part of my getting into trouble with and over a girl!

WoW!

The House of the Seven Gables-Nathaniel Hawthorne- There is a film to it in the net too.

honorable mention in the hall of unrequited loves danik, as well as yet another instance in the continual infamy of institutions sucking. laughs...

on the topic of hawthorne, I like the name "hester." she's also the heroine in the mortal engines movie, the books of which id like to find!

seven story mountain by Thomas merton who was a Franciscan author/theologian locally famous by his time spent at the local university, st. Bonaventure. I believe that particular book was written while he was here.

The Story of Art without Men - Katy Hessel

Hester is a beautiful name, bounty, but I have mixed feelings about "The Scarlet Letter". It´s a harsh book that denounces harsh usages. I'm wondering was it´s reception is in the age of "me too".
@ tailor-That title makes me curious.

Men without Women-Ernest Hemingway

I think a pretty nifty scholarly literary venture would be take an old book, and then study how the book is critiqued from generation to generation over a couple hundred years. the scarlet letter would be a good one for that.

the mammoth book of vampire stories by women by bunches of women edited by Stephen jones.

I have a theory that all women love vampires.

Yes, it would.

I don´t think all women love vampires, but there are also vampire women as there are men.

The Mammoth Book of Time Travel SF

I just did an internet search for "do all women love vampires" danik and the results came back "yes, they do."

the time machine by hg wells. I recently watched the newest version of the movie and found it enjoyable. I liked the first half better than the second half, but id say the movies worth watching.

Going to look into The Mammoth Book of Time Travel SF :) ... bought it for my Kindle Fire :) :)

Tell the Machine Goodnight - Katie Williams

Duplicate bug

goodnight, irene by carole douglas, an irene adler (that woman!) story.
