i know about them and i've actually got the book Rich dad poor dad ( i was given as a gift) but i 've always thought it boring and i never read it so now it's lost and i'm surprised that you really like the book. is it that interesting? have you read gifted hands by Ben Carson?
Re: Who's Your Favourite Author? by uche1(m): 7:41pm On Mar 25, 2006

Re: Who's Your Favourite Author? by dynamite(f): 4:59pm On Mar 26, 2006
i've read gifted hands the book is really good but quite big it took me well over 2 weeks to read it.
Re: Who's Your Favourite Author? by Zahymaka(m): 5:36pm On Mar 26, 2006
Big?? You're not used to reading novels maybe. I read it under 3 hours - and I can finish a 900-page novel in 6 hours.

Re: Who's Your Favourite Author? by Zahymaka(m): 4:50pm On Mar 27, 2006
I've been reading novels since I was five. I guess I've sped up over the years grin.
Re: Who's Your Favourite Author? by dafman(m): 2:31pm On Mar 28, 2006
I took up the challenge got a novel 'mr murder' by Dean koontz, 480 pages, i finished it in 12 hours, still a shot from 6hrs/900 page
Re: Who's Your Favourite Author? by Zahymaka(m): 3:04pm On Mar 28, 2006
Don't feel bad. If you get to be much of a freak as I've been you'll accelerate.

For me, J. Grisham ranks top, love twists to his stories.

I guess you just scan through the pages, or you just don't do anything else. Nice though
Re: Who's Your Favourite Author? by Zahymaka(m): 2:38am On Apr 03, 2006
Most people don't seem to believe I can read that fast. If you ask my friends they'll tell you I'm that fast. In exams I usually finish 40-50 minutes before everybody because I read fast.

I also have very good memory -- if you want me to give you a quote from a book I've read, I'll oblige you.
Re: Who's Your Favourite Author? by ojd(m): 4:45am On Apr 03, 2006
No need, I'll just have to belive you, by the way where 'r u @?

I think J.K Rowling of Harry Potter is pretty good. Also Dan Brown of The Da Vinci Code.

Re: Who's Your Favourite Author? by eslynera(f): 8:53pm On Apr 09, 2006
When it comes to authors, i don't have the best, because they're many.
Mostly, John Grisham, Agatha Christie, R.L. Stine, Christopher Pikes, and many more.
they're all great with different characters, so they're all the best and they all rock.

They're like Nigerian movies -- you always know how they're going to end.
