Probably never? Consider it your birthday gift to me.
I'll probably never get YSKOV! back, either. My friend has it, and she's started three other books since starting it. |

Remembering the Kanji by James Heisig.
It's a textbook for people learning Japanese. Definitely not for everyone but I can say for sure it is the best book I read in 2008. ~~~ Pamela:Can I ask you Something?
Nessiah:Yeah... *annoyed* Pamela:How to make babies? Lets make one! Nessiah:WHAT??  |

Dune by Frank Herbert and A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin were the two major books that I really really liked that I read during last year, so.

I'm just not feeling very talkative.
Dreamsongs I (George R.R. Martin): There were quite a few really good stories, and I like his style. White Fang (Jack London): I re-read this, actually. It's always nice when people write about animals without anthropomorphizing them. You Shall Know Our Velocity! (Dave Eggers): Made me realize I love Dave Eggers. Honorable mentions (Or, books that I wanted to list here but couldn't think of anything to say about them): God Emperor of Dune, Veronika Decides to Die, and Lord of the Flies. ~~~ Nothing To Make @@

I rather enjoyed Snow Falling on Cedars.
Even if this book didn't have three sex scenes in it, it'd still be awesome. The story was very good. ~~~ Yes.
