  1. I only have about 20 books that I actually own that are on my TBR list but my actual TBR is probably in the hundreds, I just haven't bought the books yet.
  2. Hey! Thanks for the welcome =) Everyone's been so nice to me, haha.

  3. Hey Em! I love your Tweety avatar :D:welcomebcf:

  4. Hey! Thanks for the message! I am really enjoying it :) Everyone is really friendly.

  5. :006: Hi Emily! Hope you are settling in well and enjoying the forum. :smile2:
  6. My music taste is quite eclectic. I listen to hip-hop (the good kind!), jazz, alternative, indie, soft rock, metal...a bit of everything, really. Not neccesarily my favourites but some artists/bands I've had on repeat lately: Natty, Muse, Keane, M.I.A., A Tribe Called Quest, The Saturdays, Luther Vandross, Kanye West, MGMT, The Libertines, Santogold, Beck, Liam Finn, Coldplay, Adele...
  7. Hey! How are you? Thanks so much for the friend request! :) I know! I don't understand it either, like I said in the thread, I'm sure everyone can find something. It's not as if all books are about the same thing!

  8. Hi Emily. Thought I would be the first to send you a friend request! Your comment on the "Reading is a Waste of Time" thread reminds me so much of myself at your age! Still can't figure out why so many people have such an aversion to reading.

    Sewing

    I don't know about books for complete beginners, I think you're better off going for a class for that but when you do start sewing I recommend the Reader's Digest Complete Guide To Sewing as a reference book. It's quite big and heavy but it's one of those books you'll always go back to if you keep sewing.

    Hello!

    Thanks for the welcome everyone
  11. I finally gave in and read Twilight last week. I finished it in less than 2 days, so I definitely agree that it's addictive and a real page-turner. It's not as well written as Harry Potter though and the way people were talking about it made it sound like it is the next Harry Potter. I am in love with Edward Cullen, even if I do find Bella & Edward's age difference a bit odd haha.
  12. By the time I had finished Shopaholic & Sister, Becky really annoyed me. She just seemed to be acting like a child all the time. I read Shopaholic & Baby anyway though, because I didn't want to leave the series unfinished. It wasn't a terrible read but Becky still annoyed me.
  13. Has anyone every read any of his books? I know his daughter through an another message board and I remember her mentioning him, it's made me curious to find out what his work is like.
  14. I loved Pillars of the Earth. I didn't think I'd get through such a huge book because my dad gave it to me just after I started reading "grown-up" books so I put it off for a few years but I read it when I was 15 and I could not put it down. I understand it must be frustrating though for those of you who know the history of the period but even so, I think it's a great book. I have World Without End but I think it was made on recycled paper or something because the pages seem so fragile, I'm afraid to rip them! I'm going to re-read Pillars of the Earth before I start it though seeing as it's been a couple of years.
