I just read Ender's Game and loved it. My library also had Speaker of the Dead, Xenocide, and Ender's Shadow.

Which should I read first? Ender's Shadow is an alternative perspective to the first book so even though it came out later it might be good to read now.

It is a very small library so unless I buy them myself I will never get to read the entire Ender's Game series. Do any of the books I listed end on a cliffhanger? I really don't want to have to purchase the whole series.

The best is Jurassic Park. The only book turned movie in which I like the movie better.
The worst has got to be Ella Enchanted. The movie had all this modern crap even though its set when kings lived in castles and stuff. Like, there was a fan club for the prince and stuff. And it changed the book completely. The fact that she was cursed with obedience was the only thing that was the same. I loathe that movie with a passion.

In a word, I was too cowardly to do what I knew what was right, as I had been too cowardly to avoid doing what I knew to be wrong

I am taking my first honors english class for school this year and during summer i am reading a long boring book. I know many people have had to read stuff they didn't want to and have, but how do you get through it as painlessly as possible.

I know this is a weird question, I'm reading the Varney the Vampyre series right now and I want more of the same kind of stuff.
Don't bother suggesting modern horror stories, I want stuff from the 19th century.

is it 'reading' instead of 'watching'? is the details from a book better then scenes on the screen? is it because books tell more then movies?

I have been collecting quotations my entire life and the collection is too large to handle. I'm looking for a computer program where I can store them and search them by keyword or topic or author etc. There are existing programs for quotations ie. Oxford etc. but none that I can find for a personal collection. Any ideas?

It seems to tie in with other things ive seen written... including the Bible.... perhaps there is a common thread there of sorts, like seeded in our right brain somewhere are secrets of ancients that are far from being primitive, prhaps just lost through a period of being subject to different universal force governing what is reality.

it doesn't have to be long. it just has to pull me out of this cynical depression. it doesn't even have to rhyme.

Here's some facts about me you could use:
i have eyes. they are brown.
i like it when people hurt themselves
i like cheese, pie, cheesecake, llamas, armadillos, blowfish
if you could draw me a blowfish, that'd be good too.

I am working on my master's thesis and I need to build a corpus of old technical manuals in Spanish (mainly computer- or software-related manuals). I can find texts from the 90s and on, but I would like to find digitized texts from the 1960s and 1970s if possible. Thanks!
