I Am Legend
I am currently reading I am Legend by Richard Matheson, wrote back in the ’50s. Good books were written back then, huh?
I first saw the movie and later found out that its based on a novel. I know that the hollywoodian ending is different than the original one and I am sure I can find it somewhere on youtube but its nice to read the book and compare it to the movie.
Game related, I am playing Return to Mysterious Island 2, can`t believe I had so much patience for the sequel to this and I am happy I am not disappointed. Can`t say the same about Still Life 2 
Listening to Placebo “Battle for the Sun” album.
————————–
Finished the book. Cried my eyes out. Too sad, too violent, very different from the movie.
Although the main character is white, blue eyed and blond hair I kept seeing Will Smith 
)
I was glad to notice that the main character did not have a dog because in the movie it dies and it is a sad moment. Unfortunately, in the book, the dog does appear, its story is more sad and has the same awful ending. Damn it!
And the ending is so different from the movie, part of the plot is completely changed and the original ending have nothing in common, except the main characters` death.
Sad novel but full of depth and I recommend it, you can find it here.
Next book on the list : Jane Eyre

Hi! The multicolored formal dress is beautiful – I’ve already put it on one of my sims.
Re: Jane Eyre – Sounds good! I read it some time ago and really enjoyed it. I really like Victorian novels, mainly Dickens, but…
More suggestions: ANYTHING by Jane Austen, she is the master of them all. My favorites are: #1 Persuasion and #2 Pride and Prejudice. Dickens’ Great Expectations is one of his best… There is also a David Lean movie (1946!) of Great Expectations that will never be topped.

Hey my dear friend!
Happy you see you here and to know you like the dress, I can not believe people still play The Sims2 after all this time:)
I adored the movie Becoming Jane, about Jane Austen and her books are on my list.
Right now I am trying to finish The Haunted Hotel but my job gives me little free time.
Neo says meow back:)

Hey! I love your creations! I’m actually named after Charlotte Bronte, because my mom loved Jane Eyre so much! It’s such a good book!
Love,

I read Jane Eyre this Summer and I enjoyed it very much. It was better than I expected.
I’ve heard that I Am Legend book was much better than the movie. I didn’t like the ending of the movie too much, though. It was too predictable.
