I cried, but mainly because good christian girls seem to be always trying to tame my real american badass, and it wears on your system after awhile, because you know that they're only doing that on principle, and what they really want to do is smooch you.

with the movie... not a drop shead. watched it with a group of guys - weirdly (at least i found it weird) they suggested it. maybe it was some kind of freaky reverse psyc. bunch of good christian guys thinking they could tame...wait, i don't think i'm going to go there...(shut up unknown)
tho the last 15 pages of the book were hell to get thru. couldn't see the print. i think i had a bug in my eye or something. or my foot caught in a rusty bear trap.
and speaking of Miss Moore - who saw Saved? Ha!

Dave, if you liked the movie...the book is far superior. it seems to be the authors gift. books for breaking hearts. can't remember his name...did "the notebook" too, and the bottle one, which i never read and never saw when it became a movie...oh, nicholas...sparks, i think. anyway, for all of those out there who just live to read and weep until all tear reserves are depleated (but tears of the good pain that leaves you with a weird sort of hope that you shouldn't be left with after having sobbed your pillow into sopping mess-dom, as opposed to the tears of bad pain that just leave you empty and looking for an ocean to walk into), a walk to remember is the book for you. I think it could be up there with "where the red fern grows", which i have never read but have been told numerous (3) times by numerous (3 again) different men is a book they can't see on a shelf without the tug of welling tears in memory of the time they read it as a kid and bawled and then actually read again! (which only gets an exclaimation mark becouse it seems that to some people reading a book more than once is amazing, incredible and generally unheard of). um, anyway, yeah, dave, read the book.

I had considered starting one when Rian asked where the Literature forum was.... I don't know though. Anyone else want a literature forum?

yay (tho literature is such a big word...) but speaking of books (seth started it), my teacher mentioned a book today and i thot of zooey..."stella adler on strindberg, ibsin and checkov". i've never read it (i'm a slacker in some areas) but aparently it's the book (one of several she wrote) that you can hear her voice clearest in. so it's possible that as far as the stella adler method goes that'd be a good example. i don't know tho. i guess i should read it too.

I think it was Stella Adler that wrote a book called Respect for Acting. I'm going to write a book called Disrespect for Acting.

I have been visiting the site (and often laughing my ass off) and have finally decided to actually post something. The idea of a literature forum has given me inspiration. Besides...I feel its about time to add another Kent sibling to the mix and rival the Johnson monopoly on here. <_< So, let me just say that I wholeheartedly, 100%, with much enthusiasm...support the idea of a book forum. I love books...there is never a time when I don't have a book going. And I will agree with Rainfall that, while the movie "A Walk to Remember" did not bring tears, the book certainly did. In fact, most Nicholas Sparks books have had that effect.
So, Seth...start up that book forum! I'm always looking for good new suggestions for a great read!
