His books follow such a similar formula that I have trouble reading them too close together. <BR/><BR/>I guess I really better read The Time Traveller's Wife this next year! So many of you highly recommend it. :-)<BR/><BR/>With LT, I always enter the ISBN and can't say I've had a problem with only getting one choice. There have been a couple of instances where I haven't had an ISBN and that sometimes proved to be a problem if the copy I had didn't match with any of the listed copies publishing dates or publishers, but that's so rare.<BR/><BR/>I do love a quiet weekend! I hope you have a good one.<BR/><BR/><B>Chris</B> - Thanks!

I can't wait for his next novel... whenever it may be!<BR/><BR/>YOU MUST READ THE TIME TRAVELLER'S WIFE!! It's awesome. I just loved it... and Niffenegger's writing is pretty damn good. TOP OF THE TBR PILE! (I'm torn how I feel about the movie)<BR/><BR/>The only thing that bothers me about LibraryThing is when there are multiple entries for the same book... which one do you pick and are some jsut false entries?

Good thing indeed! <BR/><BR/>The Da Vinci Code sure did stir up a lot of controversy, didn't it? You're right though, it really wasn't anything new. It's quite amazing in it's own way--the fact that the book got so much attention, I mean. <BR/><BR/><B>Nat</B> - I have never been a fan of the cold--it makes my nose run uncontrollably. I guess it's good that I live in a warmer climate then. :-)<BR/><BR/>Hopefully I will get to The Time Traveler's Wife this next year. <BR/><BR/><B>Staci</B> - Thank you! I was a little chocolate crazed at the time I wrote that, can you tell? :-)<BR/><BR/>I really did love The Little House on the Prairie. It was such a good show. I miss it too.<BR/><BR/><B>Laura</B> - I hope I get to it too! The friend who gave me the book is probably wondering why she bothered. LOL And I really must read it before I see the movie.

I so wanted to box all their ears and send them to their room. <BR/><BR/>The Da Vinci Code was okay but I couldn't believe so many people were so gobsmacked at the storyline.

It's been a while since I last set down to color, but it is so relaxing. I used to use it as a method of relaxation. I need to get back into it! Not too much longer now and you'll be done with those irate people! Oh, do I know how that goes! <BR/><BR/>Have a great weekend!<BR/><BR/><B>Jeane</B> - You and I would get along so well if we had to share a box of chocolates! I could eat all the caramel filled pieces for you. :-)<BR/><BR/><B>Trish</B> - One Hundred Years is a really popular book, but yes, I guess I'm surprised too. It was the only one of the one's listed above I didn't really care for. <BR/><BR/>See's Bordeaux is so good! Mmmm!

I liked it but had such a tough time remembering all the names.<BR/><BR/>Love the chocolate analogies. I can definitely pick a favorite--Bordeaux's by See's Candy. Except it is the family favorite so we all fight for the one or two that comes in the assortment box. Yummy!!<BR/><BR/>I hope you have a great weekend!!Trishhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17225576485797030511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-7910586659759535932008-12-05T12:42:00.000-08:002008-12-05T12:42:00.000-08:00I love your answers with chocolates.

I&#39;ve resorted to coloring when I would ordinarily be reading. *sigh*<BR/>I&#39;ll be done w/ irate people in about 6 hours &amp; 50 minutes.<BR/>Holiday music is best in small doses. lol<BR/>Happy weekend! :)bundleocontradictionshttp://bundleocontradictions.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-23244007337631065132008-12-05T11:42:00.000-08:002008-12-05T11:42:00.000-08:00<B>Sylvie</B> - Thanks! LOL Yes, from a behind a window, in a warm room is even better. :-)<BR/><BR/>Good luck on Monday. I have had to testify in court before, but not for my own benefit. I was a witness in all of my experiences. I refer people to legal aid all the time in my job. They really are a great resource.<BR/><BR/>Dogs make great cuddle companions. :-) I hope you have a great weekend too.<BR/><BR/><B>Janet</B> - It is a wonderful path to be on! I hope the upcoming new movie does the book justice . . .<BR/><BR/><B>Florinda</B> - Same here in regards to the James Bond movies. It was still fun to watch him in action though. :-) <BR/><BR/>Yes, I agree. The writing left something to be desired with The Da Vinci Code, but it was a good story.<BR/><BR/><B>Callista</B> - It seemed the tact to take when I came up with my answers yesterday. :-) A chocolate truffle sounds so good right about now.Literary Felinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-5734530532031597792008-12-05T10:04:00.000-08:002008-12-05T10:04:00.000-08:00LOL You're funny.

And I'm glad to find someone else who'll admit they didn't hate <I>The Da Vinci Code</I> :-).

Started me down a path that I've loved so much being on. Course, I also discovered Richard Brautigan about this same time...quite different, he was.<BR/><BR/>I totally agree with your Bond assessment! <BR/><BR/>Thanks for playing and enjoy your weekend :-)Janethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09504992439212714138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-14671770275435804192008-12-05T08:40:00.000-08:002008-12-05T08:40:00.000-08:00I always love your Friday Fill Ins. #1 is so true and preferably from a window in a nice warm environment. #5....Ha!!! so am I and hope it wll be over Monday (waaaaaaaa I have to take the stand, did not know, my attorney had me do role playing for an hour as when in court the other day and I messed up kinda, I think I have it right now. My ex will to and I have to listen to his lies... waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa and stay composed,yea right! NO "he is lyng!!!" outbursts. If he really lies I will have to go back to court....noooooooo, did not know this either. For anyone out-there if you ever need a lawyer and can't afford one for an extended perod of time do not hesitate "Legal Aid" I have a terrific lawyer. A lot of these lawyers have their own practice.<BR/><BR/>And #7...I miss having a man I love to cuddle up to on the couch, I am now cuddling up with my Oliver, a real ham, he loves it. I do kiss him but he never turns into "the perfect man" :P <BR/><BR/><BR/>Enjoy your week-end Wendy sounds loving and greatMadeleinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14624058636860716664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-88991550487063920912008-12-05T07:15:00.000-08:002008-12-05T07:15:00.000-08:00<B>Terri</B> - Chocolate must have been on my mind.

I was kind of surprised one of my husband's books didn't pop up on the first page of my most popular books, but maybe I shouldn't be.
