In what world is traddy liturgy stuff not leisurely? :|

Oh! You got owned sucka!

You now have to buy "Leisure: the Basis of Culture" by Josef Pieper.

This is directed at FP, in case that isn't clear. Can't figure out how to multicultural from this infernal device. Edited by Amppax

Miles, how were you able to complete all 7 Harry Potters in 7 days? I'm just super curious to hear the break down, because some of those novels are thick. I'm thinking you read the first two in a day? Maybe the first three. I mean, did all you do those 7 days was read?

Don't be too impressed. Nihil read the first six books in one day, and then the last one the next. I'm a slow reader and like to take my time with my reading, which is why I took a lot longer.

 

And actually, no. There wasn't any point when I read two books in one day. I actually found the last four books quicker to read because I found them more interesting in plot.

Did I say that? If I did, I misspoke. I read all 7 in a week also. First two in one day, and then I got interrupted reading Deathly Hallows so it took me two.

I am a fast reader, but not *that* fast.

I specifically remember you telling me this. I remembered because I was in awe. :P However, there is the possibility that either you made a typo or I misread.

If I really pushed I am willing to bet I could do the entire series in about three days. I do not think that would be a very smart goal to set right now though. :P

Katie might object to the idea of you reading young adult fiction for three straight days.

Plus, how would I get my anime fix?

If I were going to read Eamonn Duffy, I'd prefer to read his Marking the Hours.  

 

Haven't read that. Have you read The Stripping of the Altars? I really want to, looks excellent.

Any of the books I recommended are better than any of the books that anyone else recommended.

 

Naturally.

Oh, no, I haven't!  I think someone was telling me about it though.
