  1. I have been seeing repeated references to "Pendragon" throughout this site. Who is the author? Is it similar to Eragon?
  2. The book I am going to be reading this month will be - The Heartbreakers
  3. My favourite top five books would be -1. Anne of Green Gables2. Harry Potter series3. Chalet school series4. Scarlet Feather by Maeve Binchy5. Anne Bishop's books
  4. I think the same too ...especially with Lord of the Rings. That book was s o heavy for me that I thought I'd take atleast 3 months to wade through it , plus some time for the appendices and history stuff (I got the Omnibus edition). But the movie made it so much more simpler for me - the musical renditions in the movie was also out of this world. However, I would not say that i am too pleased with the Harry potter series of movies that they are pumping out. Oh, sure , I accept that the actors are doing a good job of it; but after having read the book, I don't find it so easy to digest the way they make such cuts in the movie. I recently discovered another delightful phenomenon - known as "Audiobooks". They often bring the characters alive, but some just kill the book off in one chop. I would recommend that one go for the dramatized versions of books, or those given by Audible. So many others I have downloaded are so staccato.
  5. Smoking is certainly one of the leading causes of cancer in the world. Even passive smoking is supposed to increase your risk of cancer by more than 40%.
  6. Cool tips for fair skin. But beware using chemicals like hydrogen peroxide, or even any foods with excess acidic content, They may bleach your face and give your skin a fair tone, but it may cause skin problems later on.
  7. The last shampoo that I used was the new range by Dove. They make my hair very soft too. But my present fave is L'Oreal Elvive's Pearl Protein shampoo. It really brings a lustre to your hair.
  8. I have used a medicine named "Erytop" It is an OTC, and has shown very good results in removing my acne.
  9. Asian Girls are certainly lovely without makeup. In fact during one of my visits to India, I noticed that there are more girls WITHOUT makeup, rather than with makeup on. Also, I noticed that the people tend to look down on the overly made up girls in real life, while anything goes in movieland.
  10. I use Gmail for the sheer fact that it has virtually unlimited space storage and allows me to keep all my mails.
  11. Definitely Sony Ericsson. Check out the new W980i....its got a cool bGB inbuilt memry
  12. Maybe we should add something here which relates to personal websites....where a newbie may create a website from scratch just for his personal enjoyment or learning.Will come up with those steps shortly in another topic : Basic Of Website Creation
  13. I have an Audible recording of an interview with the author. Its rather inetresting. Will post it if needed.
  14. Angels and Demons need not be all that i=unrealistic you know....of ourse, the part about the Vatican' involvement blah blah...may be weird...but anti-matter creation or to be more precise, "God's Particle" is indeed a sort of Holy Grail for physicists world-wide. In fact, a facility has been built at Cerne, Switzerland , called a Large Hydrogen Collider (LHC), which will supposedly create this particle.
  15. There are so many who swear by Paul Coelho's boks - but to me, they are one hell I would rather not get into - I tried to suffer through 11 Minutes and the Devil and Miss prym...but alas! All in vain.
  16. By basic, i mean reaaaal "BASIC". I know that its probably redundant info for so many of us, but I still would like you to add your bit into this post , so that newbies benefit from it.
  17. The last book I read was one by the great Bill COsby himself - titled "Love and Marriage'. Has anyone read that? It really hilarious
  18. I don't think I can limit myself to one author, 'coz during different periods of my life, I have been in love with different authors -Some of the authors are -1. L.M. Montgomery2. Erich Segal3. Anne Bishop4. Nora Roberts5. E. Nesbit
  19. The latest Eragon book is named "Brisingr"....I think...but I dont understand why they would name the book with an unpronounceable word like that!
