  1. this is one of the dafted things I've ever heard, how dare people think they can just walk into a bookshop and either blatantly lie about it not being read/being a double/whatever or say that it sounded repetitive and demand a refund?!!! People are special.... I owned a cafe a few years back and a customer ate their soup and their bread and then decided they wanted a full refund because they hadn't enjoyed it.... when we said no, they took a handful of complementary mints 'to make up for it'..... what a world, huh?
  2. Started Digging To America by Anne Tyler - much better than I was expecting. Really interesting to see the mix of cultures and how they cope with raising adopting babies, with one couple (so far at least) wanting to retain the child's heritage, and the other happy to let their child be.
  3. True.... hated ALL Shakespeare until I left, now am quite fond of Macbeth
  4. I've never seen any adaptation of this, tv series or film, but loved the book - beautiful gothic imagery, characters that for me, I loved to hate, definitely worth a read or three!! x
  5. I remember reading this in school and just hating it.... can't think for a second why, because when I read it again a couple of years back I absolutely loved it and read it twice over! Weird, huh?
  6. Honey Waffles... think tummy still recovering from Christmas dinner, but could sooooo do with a proper meal now!!! xx
  7. Difficult to choose one favourite.... hmm.... Am gonna cheat and pick one from each book!! Twilight - Edward New Moon - Jacob Eclipse - Bella Breaking Dawn - Seth and am probably gonna change my mind again when read them again... x
  8. I agree, thought he was a lot of fun Looking forward to see what Matt Smith brings to the role....
  9. Just got round to watching Dr Who from Christmas Day (better late than never)... wow!!!! Can't believe David Tennant's leaving, New Year's Day's ep is going to be so sad!!! It's great to see Donna and the Master and Wilf..... little disappointed that Rose wasn't in the ep but guess you can't have everything... And good luck to the new guy, what a role to try to fill! I've watched Dr Who for as long as I can remember but I guess 'my' Doctor growing up was Sylvestor McCoy - I know a lot of people didn't like his portrayal but I loved the relationship between and Ace, and her back story in The Curse of Fenric - an episode which actually gave me nightmares at the time!!! Scariest ever Dr Who villian for me? The Cybermen.... definitely a hide-behind-the-sofa moment whenever they're on!!! x
  10. Loved both soundtracks, and am either biased or loyal.... but love everything Muse have ever done!!!!
  11. Hi all Just read this one over Christmas as well, loved it!!! I love wolves anyway, and was intrigued to see how this one would be written as I loved The Horsewhisperer, and it lived up to my expectations, beautifully written, had my heart in my mouth the entire time, had a little tear or three at certain points... Brilliant!
  12. Hi all Finished reading this over Christmas and enjoyed it a lot more than I thought... really got me engrossed, would have read it at the table whilst having my dinner but was too busy playing chase the sprout..... Really beautifully written and a great glimpse at times gone by x
  13. Hiya All of Roald Dahl Malory Towers A Little Princess The Secret Garden Peter Rabbit
  14. Marian Keyes every time, has me in fits, tears, stitches and hysterics all within the same page, genius
