 >What in the world does starving children in other countries have to do with
 >buying books you are disppointed in???

I'm just saying there are better things to spend your money on. If you're not
going to spend it on something you like or need, you should give to charity.

  >I'd say absolutely nothing!

I'd say you'reignorant



 >Any of
 >us who want to donate to charity do so and that's our business. Actually,
 >the money not spent on her book would most likely be spent on another book.

I think people should give to charity, but they can do as they please. It's
their ungiving sould that's going to nevermind. Anyway, my point was: One,
people should giving. Two, why waste your money on something you don't like?
Spend on something you like or need, or better yet charity.

 >That's like saying, "Eat your food. Children are starving in Africa."

My little brother, who is 10, knows that means. The food, in this case,
represents money. It means doesn't waste your money, their are people in
someplaces who don't have a penny. Just like don't waste your food, they are
people who don't have any.

Hmmm... I bet a lot of things don't compute with you.

Why does everyone have that weird feeling they have read a book that just came
out now? It's like you can't wait for it to go into the library so you don't
have to pay for it? Most of the books I've read, have been written like decades
before I've read them. IWT,TVL, and QOTD were all like written before I born.
Some books are classics and can be read any time, and multiple times. Maybe
people rush out to buy books and read them NOW because they know they won't
like them and want to get them out of the way.
