Forum Search Tips Close

Basics

  1. Search syntax is similar to Google searches.
  2. Words shorter than 4 characters are ignored.
  3. Searches are NOT case-sensitive.
  4. Automatic 'and' queries: The search will only return pages that include all of your search terms.
  5. Only the body of the post is searched by default. Use the Advanced search to also search by subject.
  6. Word variation/stemming is currently not supported. For example, if you search for acting or acted, the search will not return results for act.

Phrase Searches

Sometimes you'll only want results that include an exact phrase. In this case, simply put quotation marks around your search terms. E.g. "cool video games"

Negative Terms

If your search term has more than one meaning (bass, for example, could refer to fishing or music) you can focus your search by putting a minus sign ("-") in front of words related to the meaning you want to avoid. For example, here's how you'd find pages about bass-heavy lakes, but not bass-heavy music: bass -music

    I generally don't spend my nights reading... because my parental unit has not yet grasped the fact that I want to. If I could, I would. And, I will read any book late into the night (that's what flashlights are for!).

    I think the last one that I stayed up for was Mississippi Jack (from the Bloody Jack series).  I wait for the paperback releases because I don't have the space or money for hardcovers, so when a book comes out, I've already been actively restraining myself from buying it for the last 12 to 18 months and can't put it down.  When I got MJ last month, I didn't go to sleep until almost 4 a.m. (and that was because I fell asleep, not because I finished it).

    The thing that always cracks me up is that I always stay up until all hours when I'm reading The Thirteenth Tale.  It doesn't matter that I've already read it three or four times, I still don't want to stop.  I know that's the sign of a really good book, but it just makes me laugh.  :D

    Lol, a few years ago I stayed up until about 5 in the morning, and when I told my friend at school, one of my teachers overheard and ended up telling my mom about it.  She almost killed me :)

    My mom only caught me out a couple of times, but yeah, she'd get mad, too.  It was so funny, though.  I think I was fifteen before she figured out I wasn't afraid of the dark... I just wanted a nightlight so I could read!

    When my mom found me staying up late to read when I was younger, she just laughed. I didn't have a flashlight so I just clicked my night-glow alarm clock over and over.

    My friend just gave me the latest two books of the Morganville Vampires, and I ended up staying up until about three thirty for both of them.

    Sarah's books definitely keep me up at night. Reading "Along for the Ride" I stayed up till 3 most of the nights I read it. I did the same thing with "The Truth about Forever." Amazing books.
