i've actually never read that book. :shock:
there are these guys in my class who always have awesome rubiks cubes (like 7X7 and 2x2)
i don't really follow trends, though.

Neither have I, chia. The first fifty pages (should I refrain from saying terrible?) were dull, so I abandoned the book halfway through. xD I tried to get through it, I really did. In the end I am glad I didn't finish it after the shall we say infamous reputation it has garnered.

Also, a 7x7 Rubik's cube must be huge! Are there really even set algorithms for doing it? :P

Everybody says the first 50 pages xD
Iunno, I don't think it's horrible.
I actually thought the first book was okay.
But the rest of the series was... bleh.
Also, the more people obsess over a fad, the more I dislike it.
So I don't really like Twilight so much anymore :3

This is what really made me stay away from Twilight (and insulting it, for that matter). And the fact that the most awesome horror writer ever, Stephen King, totally dissed Twilight.
