cheesy since the days every household had at least a copy of James Hadley Chase
Wow cheesy cheesy cheesy My friend told me his dad said Chase was a damn good writer and a popular read in those days gone by. That was how I got to hear of James Hadley Chase. After reading just one book of his, ''You find him-I'll fix him'', to say I was thrilled and captivated would be an Understatement grin grin grin
Infact, I THINK i should emulate his style of writing grin grin grin





Oooops! This is so off topic grin grin grin

Arrow of God is one book Achebe used to portray the folly of believing in a god or gods. The arbitrariness of the gods, the gods abandoning Ezeulu for speaking the truth; it all boils down to the fact that mankind made the gods. Not the other way round.

Arrow of God has no match when it comes to the truth about our relationship with the gods and morality.
Thank you bro! That's a fact!

Try special search keys like,
title + author +/ novel
e.g
Things fall apart by chinua achebe /novel

Thank so much, will try it
Do try it. But most of the books on pdfgive.net are essays and reviews with same title as the novels. U'll have to dig a bit deeper to unearth the actual novels.

Arrow of God more engaging as a story for me, things fall apart, great book but a little too abstract or proverbial like someone has mentioned.
My thoughts exactly!

I give it to 'Things fall apart'

my best proverb in the book is
'Since the bird has learnt to fly without perching, the hunter has learnt to shoot without aiming'
I think it's ; '' Eneke the bird said since men has learnt to shoot without missing, he has also learnt to fly without perching''

Any person who had read Things Fall Apart before getting hold of Arrow of God may be tempted to think he is watching a re-run of the film of events and characters in Things Fall Apart..

But I must say, Things Fall Apart wins it.. smiley

PhonesRe: How Many Hours Do U Spend With Your Phone Per Day ? by SirDavico(m):
yinkuscious:
A friend told me that she is always pressing her phone throughout the day and that the only time she is not doing something with her phone is only when she is asleep.
This result to her ordering for a power bank that can last for 5 days when fully charged. So, approximately she claimed to always be with her for 23hours per day.

I was so surprise. But thinking about the apps on smart phones this days, u can certainly have everything u want on ur phone, from academic apps, religious apps, social apps etc.
Let's share how many hours we all spend being with our phone per day.

As for me, I will say 9-10 hours per day
Ewoooo....
Op, your friend can lie ehen...@ bolded. 23 hrs? Out of 24 hrs? She nor dey sleep? Abi she be witch?

***Modified***
Mine would....wait! Lets do the math.
8am +1am = 17hrs - 2hrs(for siesta) = 15hrs per day.
24-15=9,
9-2=7.
So dia4, I approximately;
1) Have 2 hours siesta
2) 7 hours night sleep
3) 15 hours phone experience

------> Per day.
Ain't that balanced?

TV/MoviesRe: 20 Nollywood Movies We Will Never Forget by SirDavico(m): 12:46am On Apr 26, 2016
There's this movie, I'm not sure if I still remember the Title. But I think it's price of sacrifice. Pete Edochie was a king in that movie. Clem Ohanez had to go to the evil forest to retrieve his manhood (dick) cheesy cheesy cheesy

However, Igodo remains my best Nigerian Movie.
Other movies like
- Ashes to Ashes,
- Set up
- Baby Police
- Picadily
- Golden Axe & Land of dwarfs
- 7 Graves
- Jagua: Woman Wrapper
were also interesting.

Also, for tv series, the earlier series of super story, i.e the story of IRETIN, the story of AMAKA( I've forgotten the titles of those series) and the staff are worth mentioning.
*Singing*
It's a super story...
A life of strife and sorrow....
It's a super stooory....

I weep for Naija Movie Industry!
Chai...diaris God ooo...
All these movies should be remade. People will surely buy them!
Imagine how I have been smiling since, scrolling down this thread. Memories!

The first time I saw John Okafor a.k.a Mr. Ibu was in a 99/00 movie. I can't remember the title, but I recall Segun Arinze starring in that same movie and wearing this old school wig. Who recalls this movie?
''Vuga'' is the name of the movie. Also starring were Gentle Jack and Regina Askia.
