  1. That scene is hilarious. Like that film! Last DVD I watched was The Reader.
  2. Argh, I hate this too!! I'm always tempted to text back 'No'
  3. Hello! I haven't read much of it, only 40 pages or so and I'm not very impressed so far. I will probably continue with it but it's not holding my attention at the moment. :)

  4. Ooooh, thanks for posting this! I have no idea who most of those artists are though . I'm glad Muse are on there again, seeing as it was Stephenie Meyer's 'soundtrack' when she wrote the books.
  5. I picked up The Catcher In The Rye at ASDA. It was reduced because it looked a bit haggard but never mind.
  6. On! "Super human moron who wears a peacoat, has a little bouffant and performs circus tricks" That might not be exactly right..but it's close enough.
  7. It took me ages to get into this as well. At least to about 60 pages in, so you're almost there ScarletBella! Ended up really enjoying it too.
  8. I did that last week. I did question my sanity a bit! I haven't done any reading today. I'm currently reading Vulnerable by Amy Lane and so far, I'm not impressed. It's full of errors, really obvious ones and the story isn't great so far either. Still, I'll carry on with it! About to make a list in my diary (so I don't forget in the future) of which books so far this year have had an impact on me. Off the top of my head, I've thought of Testimony, The Time Traveller's Wife, Water For Elephants, The Outcast and Boy A. I'm sure there's more, I'll have to check in my lil notebook!
  9. I went to see 500 days of Summer which I thought was quite enjoyable. Quirky and really funny in places. Also has an awesome soundtrack. Recommended!
  10. Hello! I'm sure it was you who has read Vulnerable by Amy Lane? If it's not I apologize in advance! What did you think to it? I've just started it tonight.

     

    Have a good week :)

  11. Just finished Boy A. I liked it a lot, but wasn't blown away. The subject fascinated me more than the actual book. Still, very good.
  12. Wow! Congratulations . I bet you could reach 120 easy!
  13. That's horrible!! I would've done the same as your sister. I cannot stand people like that. How rude!
  14. Recently I've been having a tough time (nothing major but it's important to me) and I've found myself reading a lot more. The escapism is fantastic. Even with a lot on my mind, I can lose myself in a book. It's made me love my most recent reads more, the fact they've been a 'support' when I've needed them.
  15. That's what I can get like, Scarlet! I was reading a really great book recently and apparently my mum was talking to me for ages, even saying my name a few times. I didn't know at all! I was too busy in a different world. Cocktail party effect did not work at all.
  16. Stick with it. I found the first 60 pages hard going but I ended up loving it. I started Boy A last night and am really enjoying it. The storyline fascinates me.
  17. If I'm completely sucked into the book, then there could be a riot going on and I could still read. But if I'm finding the book hard to get into, then a fly daring to enter the room will bother me.
  18. I finished The Outcast this afternoon. What a fantastic read! I loved it. I couldn't put it down once I reached a certain point. Also bought three more books today but I'm all over the place and I can't actually remember what I bought. :lol:
  19. There was nobody there to meet him. The Outcast - Sadie Jones
  20. I thought almost exactly the same. I really disliked Elena. You're more generous with your rating though! I would give it 1.5/5
  21. I turned two of my sisters into fans too! They're addicted, just like me now.
  22. I've not read anything today but I read quite a lot of The Outcast yesterday. I'm quite liking it at the moment. I also bought The Shining yesterday!
